Customer choice, health and nutrition

Promise 2008

We will continue to provide our customers with the quality and value they want, wherever we operate, while ensuring that we provide products, services and information to enable our customers to choose healthier, greener and more ethical products.

We will:

  • increase the number of GDA labels to cover 78% of eligible own-brand products outside the UK, aiming towards 100% within the next two years;
  • review the product composition of a further 500 products in the UK to reduce the levels of salt, fat, saturates and sugar;
  • extend our product reformulation programme beyond the UK as our own brands grow internationally;
  • offer our support in helping to develop proposals that address the problem of antisocial drinking, recognising that we have a role to play in addressing the problem;
  • continue to focus on helping our staff to lead healthier lifestyles, including by rolling out our improved staff menu to a further 190 stores in the next 12 months and to all UK stores over the next four years;
  • increase the number of lines in our Healthy Living, Light Choices and Disney Kids ranges to ensure our customers can access healthy options;
  • continue to offer half-price promotions on at least five items of fruit and vegetables every week as part of our 'fruit and veg' pledge and we will extend it to all our international businesses; and
  • continue to develop our online and in-store pharmacy tools to give customers personalised information to help them lead healthier lifestyles.
