About Us
Shopkeepers for over 125 years, we love providing our customers with a great shopping experience they won’t find anywhere else. At just under 500 stores across the UK, our retail colleagues work as one team to provide plenty of food essentials, great service and a buzz people enjoy. It’s why our customers keep coming back for more.
The UK’s 5th largest supermarket, we provide great value for money and good quality fresh food and groceries to over 11 million customers every week. Our focus on freshness makes us stand out as we prepare more fresh food in‑store than any other supermarket. It’s challenging. It’s fast‑paced. But from Market Street to checkout our friendly team loves going above and beyond to bring our customers what they want.
At Morrisons we believe in investing in our colleagues and industry‑leading training programmes. We provide our colleagues with opportunities to make it to the top. Many of our store managers started out on the shop floor. They’ve been there and done that. It’s how they know how to support our colleagues and help our customers so well.
