Sainsburys strong ethical approach has been at the heart of the Sainsburys business since the first Sainsburys store was opened way back in 1869. More than 140 years later, Sainsburys values still provide the framework for how business gets done at Sainsburys.

However, although shoppers are increasingly price-conscious - especially during challenging economic times - ethical and environmental issues remain important for customers. Fortunately, Sainsburys believe that by considering the wider social, environmental and economic impacts of the Sainsburys business, it's possible to meet shoppers' expectations - and even exceed them - by acting responsibly on their behalf.

With a history of more than 140 years, and close to 800 stores throughout the UK, Sainsburys is one of the most recognised high-street names in the UK.

From its very first shop in Drury Lane, London, in 1869, Sainsburys has come a long way, and now operates close to 800 stores in the United Kingdom, with over 2,000 suppliers, more than 30,000 products, and with a staff of more than 150,000.

Now, with the advent of online shopping, Sainsburys is making its name in online retail too, and offers a real alternative to other online stores, such as Tesco, which has previously been dominant in this sector for several years.

Much more than just an online version of your local Sainsburys, the Sainsburys Online Store is a one-stop shop for just about anything you can think of, including all the latest electrical appliances, and even Sainsburys insurance and credit cards.
