- The John Lewis Partnership is a major United Kingdom worker co-operative retailer which operates John Lewis department stores, Waitrose supermarkets and the direct services company Greenbee. Unusually, it isn't a public limited company but that it is held on trust on behalf of all its employees (called partners) - who have a say in the running of the business and receive an annual profit distribution which is usually a significant addition to their annual salary. The company is the 3rd largest UK private company in the Sunday Times Top Track 100 for 2008. The chain's image is upmarket, and it appeals strongly to a middle class core of shoppers. Recently, however, John Lewis have broadened their marketing strategy towards all types of buyers, with the introduction of the 'Simply' range to John Lewis and the 'Essential' range to Waitrose, and the expansion of the business. The partnership supplies the Ocado web supermarket, with Waitrose own-brand foods, and John Lewis own-brand non-food items.
- John Lewis er en britisk varehuskjede med avdelinger over hele Storbritannia. Silkehandleren John Lewis åpna en forretning på hjørnet av Oxford Street og Holles Street i London i 1864 og bygde den opp til et større varehus. Sønnen John Spedan Lewis utvikla forretningens spesielle eierform, som innebærer at de ansatte er deleiere i firmaet og mottar sin del av overskuddet som et tillegg til lønna - derav navnet John Lewis Partnership. I 1925 lanserte Spedan Lewis slagordet «Never knowingly undersold». Det innebærer en garanti overfor kunden om at den som finner en vare billigere hos en konkurrent, får differansen refundert hos John Lewis. John Lewis har siden opprettholdt denne garantien, og har også utvida den til å gjelde internettsalg. Mange forretninger har siden adoptert denne ideen fra John Lewis. I 1933 kjøpte John Lewis Partnership sin første forretning utafor London, og har siden ekspandert ved oppkjøp eller nyetableringer over det meste av landet. Magasinet i Oxford Street er fortsatt John Lewis' flaggskip. Dagens bygning er fra 1960. Vareutvalget hos John Lewis omfatter matvarer, klær, kosmetikk og husholdningsartikler.
