To mark South Asian Heritage Month, our I AM ME colleague network brought us together under this year’s theme, ‘Unity in Diversity’, with a clear focus on turning cultural awareness into meaningful learning, strategic insight, and actionable inclusion. We were joined by six supplier partners who shared not only their products, but the rich heritage, values, and market insights behind their brands. These exchanges offered valuable perspectives on supplier inclusion and authentic business collaboration. A standout highlight was an honest, thought-provoking conversation with Tara Chandra, founder of Here We Flo. Tara shared candid insights into navigating entrepreneurship as a female founder, sparking meaningful discussion on identity, breaking down barriers, and actively building spaces where everyone belongs. Interactive cultural activities, live henna art and an energising Bollywood dance workshop offered hands-on opportunities to experience and learn more about South Asian heritage firsthand. Events like this prove the true power of colleague networks — not just in bringing people together, but in challenging mindsets, driving cross-business connection, and turning inclusion from a value on paper into a real driver of impact. Thank you to all our colleagues, supplier partners, and Tara for making the day so valuable. #SouthAsianHeritageMonth #UnityInDiversity #Sainsburys

Great-quality, affordable food starts with the farmers who grow and produce it, and the natural environment that supports them. From healthy soils and clean water to pollinators and biodiversity, nature plays a vital role in helping bring food from farms to our customers’ plates. Through 21 years of partnership with The Woodland Trust, we've planted more than 5.4 million trees. Now, with a renewed four-year commitment focused on agroforestry, we're helping to show how trees on farms can help farmers grow the food we rely on every day - helping to improve soil health, manage water, support wildlife and protect farms and animals from the impacts of extreme weather. 🌲 Sainsbury’s customers continue to support Woodland Trust projects with 1p from every dozen Woodland free-range eggs alongside other Woodland range products including free range chicken, turkey, Best of British apples, bags for life and a range of greetings cards supporting The Woodland Trust. It’s a great example of how good food in partnership can bring together farmers, customers, businesses and charities like The Woodland Trust to help build a more resilient food system for the future. ⛅ Watch the video to hear directly from the people making it happen. 👇 #community #partnership #sainsburys

For the first time, we’ll be selling British-grown cucumbers through winter, helping extend British salad production beyond its traditional growing season. As extreme weather and global disruption create new challenges for fresh produce growers, our two new 10-year agreements with British salad suppliers Thanet Earth and Evesham Vale Growers will help increase the volume of home-grown cucumbers, tomatoes and peppers on our shelves. With Thanet Earth, this includes investing in the innovation needed to grow more British cucumbers and peppers, including winter cucumbers grown in the UK through the darkest months of the year using carefully managed light and heat. And with Evesham Vale Growers, we’re helping increase year-round supplies of British-grown tomatoes, strengthening our supply chains and supporting British growers for the future. Hear from Robert James at Thanet Earth on what this means for British growing and bringing more British produce to customers year-round. #Sainsburys #BritishFarming

What a weekend! The sun well and truly showed up for Leeds Pride yesterday, and so did our amazing Sainsbury's and Argos colleagues. We loved being back to sponsor the event for the 11th year running. It’s always a brilliant highlight to bring our teams together, show our support for the LGBTQ+ community and just soak up the fantastic atmosphere. We also debuted our shiny new Pride-branded lorry, which looked brilliant making its way through the city centre. A huge thank you to everyone who marched with us, cheered from the pavements and helped make it such an unforgettable day out. #Sainsburys #Argos #LeedsPride #ProudAtSainsburys

It's an ice cream Sunday... Happy National Ice Cream Day! You're heading down the ice cream aisle at Sainsbury's. What frozen flavour takes your fancy?

We believe good food should be joyful, accessible and affordable for everyone, every day. That’s why, this week, we've signed the Good Food Bill, supporting calls for industry and government to work together to build a more resilient food system and help ensure everyone can access good, nutritious food. We've made real progress towards a food system that benefits everyone, from partnering with farmers to deliver more British produce to our customers, to investing £8m with Comic Relief in programmes that provide children with good, nutritious food during the school holidays. But we believe that lasting change will only happen if businesses, government, farmers, charities and communities work together, which is why Sainsbury's is proud to be calling for action on one of the most important challenges facing the UK today.
