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.

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.

As regular Sainsburys shoppers will know, the traffic light labels on many Sainsburys food products provide a quick and handy reference for determining the health-value of a product, but Sainsburys also take great pride in providing environmentally friendly products too. For instance, in June 2008, Sainsburys became the first major supermarket to source its fresh and smoked salmon entirely from Scottish salmon farms approved by Freedom Food, and meeting the RSPCA's strict welfare standards for salmon.

Additionally, in 2007, Sainsburys were the first UK supermarket to convert its banana production entirely to Fairtrade. Today more than half of the Fairtrade bananas sold in the UK are sold by Sainsburys.

In fact, Sainsburys aim to be environmentally responsible not just with regards to the food it sells, but in all aspects of the way the Sainsburys business is operated, and encourages customers to be environmentally responsible too.
