Knowledge is power. ✨ We work closely with our cotton suppliers and farmers to enable them to implement better practices – including using less water, promoting soil health and encouraging biodiversity. 🌱 At M&S, we go to great lengths to source and make our products with care. We have been a longstanding partner of Better Cotton since 2009, and all the cotton used in our clothing is 100% responsibly sourced. This season is the first time we have fully traceable cotton within products in our SS25 collection, supporting our customers to make more sustainable choices.

At M&S, animal welfare is incredibly important to us. We go to great lengths to work with the best farmers, those dedicated to quality who take good care of their animals – farmers we know and trust. We are proud that our M&S Select Farm standards go above and beyond industry standards and this has been recognised once again in the Business Benchmark on Farm Animal Welfare 2024 report and the Crustacean Compassion report recently. With more RSPCA Assured­ products than any other retailer and the results of these industry reports, our customers can trust that everything they buy at M&S Food is produced to the highest animal welfare standards.

🌙 Eid Mubarak! 🌙 We spoke to Umair Azam, Food Operations Manager at our Cannock Simply Foods store, who has been part of our team for an incredible 25 years, to hear how he celebrates this special occasion. "Eid is all about spending time with loved ones. We start the day with early morning prayers in the mosque, wearing new traditional clothes. It’s tradition to eat something sweet before heading out so my Mum always makes a special milky vermicelli dish called ‘Semiyah.’ One of my fondest childhood memories is receiving ‘Eidie’ where you are given money instead of gifts. Even now, my siblings and I wait for our Dad to give it to us, although I’m also handing it out these days!” Throughout Ramadan, Umair also breaks his fast with his colleagues in store and volunteers at his local mosque, leading the security team for nightly prayers. We’re proud to celebrate colleagues like Umair who bring dedication and community spirit to everything they do. Wishing all our colleagues, customers, and communities a joyful and blessed Eid. 🌟 #EidMubarak #NotJustAnyJob
