Waitrose, the high-end food brand exclusively available in Malta at Arkadia Foodstores and FoodExpress, has been voted as the best for own-brand items in the UK, according to a survey compiled by consumer champion, Which?.
Nearly one in two products researchers tested from Waitrose were worthy of a Which? best-buy award, higher than any other foodstore brand.
“Since its inception, Arkadia has always enjoyed a reputation for offer upmarket, quality food and drink products, hence our decision to introduce Waitrose, out of all the brands available worldwide, in Malta,” said Arkadia general manager Antoine Portelli.
“This recognised award makes us at Arkadia proud to be the only foodstore with Waitrose products on our shelves.”
Waitrose is a chain of British supermarkets, which forms the food retail division of Britain’s largest employee-owned retailer, the John Lewis Partnership.
The company has a royal warrant to supply groceries, wine, and spirits to Queen Elizabeth II and to Prince Charles.
