WHSmith

Website

With over 600 stores on the high street and another 800+ travel stores at airports, train stations, hospitals, workplaces and motorway services, WHSmith is one of the UK's leading retail groups and a household name.

The first newsagent in the Smith family name opened in 1792, and the company, WHSmith, was created in 1828. WHSmith.co.uk was launched in 1999.

You probably know us best for books, newspapers and stationery. Now, thanks to our carefully chosen partners, we offer an increasingly wide choice of goods through our stores and website.

Beyond the UK we continue to open stores in airports, railway stations, hospitals and shopping malls across Australia, South East Asia, India and the Middle East.

Being a responsible business is a high priority for us, and we continue to be ranked highly in the Business in the Community’s Corporate Responsibility Index. We continually strive to improve the way we do things across areas including:

  • Energy and emissions
  • Transport
  • Waste
  • Packaging
  • Encouraging customer responsibility
  • Product sourcing and suppliers
