He's certainly never mentioned them. Impressive website. Looks like a really well run company at first glance. I never fail to learn something new on here. Thanks :-)
I am shocked, truly shocked.
You have never heard of Booths ?
Grocer to the gentry ?
I am now reevaluating your position as my role model.
Yours etc..
Disappointed of Manchester.
My dad's shops were in (inter alia): Hulme, Miles Platting & Moss Side. Accordingly I've always been a little more drawn towards the more...errr.....functional end of the grocery retail experience ;-)
I've even occasionally been known to shop at Tesco's in an emergency ;-)

Just wish there were more branches around the Manchester area.
Hale and Chorlton shortly. More of a super deli rather than a super market.
The best thing they sell is proper Cumberland Sausage - Just like what you get up in the Eden Valley - ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Non of this pretend rubbish that the other supermarkets try to palm palm off in imitation. It's so good my dad (aged 84) regularly gets two buses and travels for over an hour to buy some from Booths in Knutsford and is prepared to wait at Wilmslow bus station for an extra hour on the way back come rain or shine.
Real Cumberland Sausage - the crack cocaine of the sausage world.
