John Lewis, regularly voted the UK’s favourite retailer, began trading in 1864 with the opening of our first shop in London's Oxford Street.
Since 1864, and through the efforts of our 30,000 Partners (staff), we have succeeded in becoming the UK's largest multi-channel retailer, with 39 John Lewis shops and johnlewis.com, our growing online business. We’re a different sort of company, as each member of staff is a Partner in the business. We’re the largest example of worker co-ownership in the UK, and each year we share our profits with each of our Partners in the form of an annual bonus.
John Lewis is part of the John Lewis Partnership which includes the Waitrose supermarkets and a textiles factory in the north of England. Together we have over 85,000 Partners.

Stores are all in the UK but they ship world-wide.
