Sainsbury's Runny Honey

Sainsbury's Runny Honey is a private-label product offered by J Sainsbury plc, one of the United Kingdom's largest retail supermarket chains. As a store-brand product, it is designed to provide consumers with a cost-effective alternative to national honey brands while maintaining high quality standards. Unlike single-origin honeys, this specific product is typically a blend of honeys sourced from various locations around the world, including both EU and non-EU countries, to ensure a consistent flavour profile and year-round availability.

The Sainsbury's brand was founded in London in 1869 by John James Sainsbury and Mary Ann Sainsbury. It has since grown into a massive retail empire with the ultimate owner being J Sainsbury plc, which remains headquartered in the United Kingdom. Because it is a retail private label, the production and bottling are often handled by contracted food processing subsidiaries or specialized honey packers, which then distribute the final product exclusively through Sainsbury's retail network.
