We're making a big change to cold and flu season favourite

Reducing plastic packaging on our own brand products is high on our agenda. And since 2019, we’ve removed 2.2 billion pieces of plastic from some of our customers best loved items. So, it made sense that we’d do the same with our multi-pack pocket tissue, just in time for flu season.??

She’s also part of the Women Finance Committee, making recommendations to the leadership team around creating a level playing field for everyone to progress.??

The man behind the mic???

Product Manager, Mike is “the voice of the customer and the voice to the customer”. Not only did he help bring to life the vision of our very first homegrown self-service checkout, but he also became the voice of it. And now, with over 12,000 checkouts in every corner of the UK, Mike’s is probably one of the most heard voices in the country.??

From an idea on a piece of paper, to tills transported by trolley, Mike’s got all the details of how he and his team transformed the in-store experience for our customers. Read about it here.??
