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.

If you're shopping for groceries at Sainsburys, then it's good to know that Sainsburys have a long and established history of supporting British farmers.

However, Sainsburys believe this is about more than simply stocking British farmers' products. It’s also about working closely with UK farmers to raise their capability and skill levels, and thus empowering them to continue supplying Sainsburys for the long-term.

Where possible, Sainsburys aim to source British and Sainsburys offer a variety of products that are 100% British all year long. For other types of seasonal produce, Sainsburys aim to stock the best of British in season and, in some cases, to secure supplies, Sainsburys purchase an especially large portion of the British crop.

Sainsburys commitment to providing great-tasting, affordable British produce means being able to provide customers healthy products when they are at their very best. In fact, during the 2008-2009 British season Sainsburys sold more British apples and pears than any other supermarket we purchased 45% of all tomatoes grown in the UK and purchased over 23% of the British strawberry crop.

Much like any Sainsburys store on the UK high-street, the Sainsburys Online Store provides much more than just a great range of groceries and award-winning selections of wine.

Where once the Sainsburys online store was a mere shadow of the Tesco online store, and a limited range of goods combined with a lacklustre website to drive many customers elsewhere, the new Sainsburys website provides an excellent online shopping experience, with more products than you can shake a shopping trolley at!

However, more than just a great range of products, the new Sainsburys website provides some great information on all manner of useful subjects. Not least are the useful Sainsburys recipe guides and wine guides, but there is lots of useful tips and information on a wide range of other products too.
