| | most of us the supermarket is now a way of life. A one-stop convenience store where we can quickly grab the essentials. But what we gain in time we often loose elsewhere as the major players simply pile it high, sell it cheap and try to please all of the people all of the time. Which, of course, is impossible. Something has to give. Usually it's service. Often it's quality. Sometimes it's choice. Fortunately, there is another approach to being a supermarket and it's one the 'Big Four' will always struggle to achieve. It's called flexibility, which means adding the unusual option of buying locally for our local market. It's all about knowing your customers ... their likes and their dislikes. It's about recognising that shopping, especially for food, is not so much a matter of trends as a simple matter of taste. And it's what makes Booths so different. Every buyer at Booths concentrates on providing what our customers want ... not what we want our customers to have. That's why the manager of every Booths supermarket has a big say in exactly what items to carry in their store. | |
| | | And it's why you, the customer, will usually find what you want on our shelves ... because we listen to your suggestions. All of which explains why your local Booths could have not one local cheese on the shelf, but probably 40 or more. It's why we still lead the way in organic produce. It's why Booths coffee arrives in your store less than 24 hours after roasting. It's why every ounce of our fresh meat is 100% British. Happily, none of this has to cost you any extra. On price, we're as competitive as the major players. Our weekly 'Best Buys' include huge savings on household names. And the friendly smile you get from all of the staff is just a part of the service. So while the national chains offer to roll back prices, make life taste better or boast that every little helps, we have a simpler proposition. We welcome you back to the traditional experience of shopping for pleasure ... for the big brands and a lot of special things too. The kind of things that have won us everything from 'Supermarket Wine Merchant of the Year' to a Gold Medal for our own-recipe Sausages. Booths. It's best to be different. | |
