It all began in 1864, when John Lewis opened his first shop on Oxford Street. The first day's takings were 16 shillings and fourpence! It's safe to say that the current 26 department stores do a little better these days!

'Never Knowlingly Undersold' in it's shops since 1925, the John Lewis name stands for quality and value. You can be sure that when you buy from John Lewis, you can buy with a confidence which will not be disappointed. In fact as a John Lewis customer, you will enjoy the benefits of their stated aim; "The Partnership aims to deal honestly with its customers and secure their loyalty and trust by providing outstanding choice, value and service". Can't say fairer than that!

So why wait, with John Lewis, you buy much more than just a product. You get the peace of mind that comes from buying from one of the greatest British retail institutions.
