Retail

The John Lewis Partnership's 85,500 Partners own the leading UK retail businesses - John Lewis and Waitrose. Our founder's vision of a successful business powered by its people and its principles defines our unique company today. The profits and benefits created by our success are shared by all our Partners in a business that puts them first. All 85,500 Partners own our John Lewis shops and Waitrose supermarkets across the UK, an online and catalogue business, a production unit and a farm. In addition Partnership Services, our business service centre, supports our business in the following areas: Finance, IT, Personnel and Procurement. When our founder, John Spedan Lewis, set up the Partnership, he was careful to create a governance system, set out in our Constitution, that would be both commercial allowing us to move quickly to stay ahead in a competitive industry, and democratic giving every Partner a voice in the business they co-own. His combination of commercial acumen and corporate conscience, so ahead of its time, is what makes us what we are today. Our Partners will tell you that the John Lewis Partnership is a very special place to work. We believe our distinctive culture – our spirit – lies at the heart of this feeling.
