“Since we embarked on the rental property plans in 2020, we have made significant progress with our core retail strategy. This has seen us invest heavily in our customer offer for our unique brands John Lewis and Waitrose, simplifying our business and strengthening our balance sheet. The strategy is progressing well and involves modernising our stores, enhancing our digital platforms and improving our supply chain to provide the best possible quality, service and value to our customers. We remain committed land owners in our communities and continue to invest significantly in our property assets and retail offer.
