About our company
In 2019, Savers was awarded 4th place in the Sunday Times list of best big companies to work for, the highest among retailers. This reflects our team's engagement and our commitment to our people.
Savers was acquired by AS Watson in 2000 to enhance our value-led offer in the UK. Our goal is to be the most competitively priced health and beauty retailer on the high street, operating in clean, contemporary stores with friendly, trained staff. We offer branded products at affordable prices and have over 400 stores across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales, with ongoing expansion.
