Waitrose Botley Road’s Greg Ryan on healthy Oxford and Little Treats

G33 32(1)

‘Our bestselling item last week was a 350g pack of blueberries. That says a lot about shoppers in Oxford, where healthy eating is a big thing’

You’ve just celebrated 10 years at this store. What makes it so great? I started on the Waitrose graduate scheme straight out of uni in 2005 and worked my way up through different stores in the south and in London. I opened here in 2015 and have stayed because it’s just such a brilliant shop. This is our second Grocer 33 win, although I was on holiday the first time when we won a few years ago. That is all down to our 115 partners and the relationships they have built with our community.
