Our commitment to reinvesting in the communities we serve is embedded in every aspect of our business. A core pillar of this commitment is our strategic support of local suppliers. We are proud to partner with producers across the island of Ireland and are even prouder that over 75%* of our fresh products are sourced, packed, and distributed locally.

This approach is driven by a deep understanding of our customers’ expectations. Shoppers consistently express a strong preference for high-quality, locally sourced food, and we have responded by embedding this feedback into our sourcing strategy. Our experienced team of buyers actively collaborates with both long-standing and emerging suppliers to bring innovative, local products to our shelves.

Each product we select undergoes a rigorous vetting process to ensure it meets our uncompromising standards for taste, quality, and value. Our local sourcing not only supports regional economies but also enables us to deliver the freshest, most flavourful food to our customers.

This strategy reflects our broader goal: to strengthen local food systems, champion sustainability, and offer a diverse, quality-assured product range that reflects the richness of our local agricultural sector.

As we continue to grow and evolve, our focus remains clear—fostering resilient local supply chains and ensuring our customers enjoy the very best of the island’s produce.

*Over 75% (by value) of fresh products sold through the Henderson Group are produced, packed, and distributed on the island of Ireland.
