About Wm Morrisons Supermarkets
Wm Morrison Supermarkets plc (LSE: MRW) is the fourth largest chain of supermarkets in the United Kingdom, headquartered in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. The company is usually referred to and is branded as Morrisons, and it is part of the FTSE 100 Index of companies. Morrisons' market share as of December 2008 was 11.8%, making it the smallest of the "Big Four" supermarkets, behind Tesco (30.9%), Asda (16.8%) and Sainsbury's (16%), but ahead of the fifth place Co-operative Group, which had a share of 4.4%.
Founded in 1899 by William Morrison, hence the abbreviation Wm Morrison, it began as an egg and butter stall in Rawson Market, Bradford, England. Until 2004, Morrisons store locations were primarily focused in the north of England, but with the takeover of Safeway in that year, the company now has 455 superstores across the UK.
The Morrison family currently owns around 15.5% of the company.

It’s good to know we work with British growers we know and trust.
We select fresh British meat and source free-range eggs, direct from the farm. Our bakers bake with British flour and the apples in our apple pies are picked by hand.
We buy fish fresh from the boat and deliver from Grimsby every day. We make our own fresh flower bouquets right here in Derbyshire, and we cook our own hams and make our own steak burgers and sausages.
Our close relationships with farmers and growers means we know where our food comes from - so we’re able to deliver good quality and great value on Market Street every day. After all, what we make, makes us who we are...
