Waitrose has 300 supermarkets and 39 convenience branches that combine the convenience of a supermarket with the expertise and service of a specialist shop. It is dedicated to offering quality food that has been responsibly sourced combined with high standards of customer service. As a co-owned Partnership, everyone who works for Waitrose owns the business and the notion of partnership is also extended to farmers and growers. At the heart of the supply chain are its producer groups that operate across livestock, milk, farmed fish, fruit and vegetable categories.
