John Lewis Money
We’re the Financial Services business, offering a range of products and services to our Partnership customers. Our customers know us as John Lewis Money, the face of financial services at John Lewis.
We believe in keeping things straightforward, offering clear information and helpful solutions that support our customers’ missions across insurance, credit and travel money.
Build to Rent
We want to transform our underused spaces into vibrant, sustainable communities.
To do this, we’re combining the convenience of shared areas and modern amenities with the safety, energy efficiency, and high-quality design that help make a home.
Our plan is to offer residents quality, desirable rental homes while creating long term value for the Partnership.
We have been successful in a planning appeal to create 428 homes above a new, modernised Waitrose shop.

Leckford Estate
Waitrose has its own farm, which is part of the Leckford Estate in Hampshire, and embodies the Waitrose principles of good food, good environmental practices and fairness. Established in 1927, our farm produces arable crops including high quality bread-making wheat, which is used to make a range of Leckford label flour, as well as oil seed rape, beef, apples, pears, apple juice and cider for Waitrose shops.
On the estate you'll also find a Farm Shop, the Longstock Park Nursery and Longstock Park Water Garden, all of which are open to the public.
