    Social Value People: An interview with Edwin Booth CBE, Chair of Booths

    Watch our exclusive interview with Edwin Booth CBE, Chair of Booths, the family-owned supermarket chain in the north of England. Edwin explains why helping employees reach their full potential should be a strategic priority for businesses, and how Booths approaches this in practice.

    Edwin Booth CBE has chaired Booths, the family-owned grocer with 27 stores across the North of England, since 1997.

    In this interview with Anna McChesney-Gordon, Chief Commercial Officer at Social Value Portal, he explains why he believes putting purpose before profit leads to good, sustainable profit in the long term. Edwin talks through how Booths builds its values into recruitment and induction, including:

    • Why 70 to 80 people released on temporary licence from prison have worked across the business

    • How Booths chooses charity partners such as the Royal Countryside Fund and Mind

    • How the business is reducing its environmental footprint, including a 30% packaging reduction on loose produce in two trial stores
