Iceland: The Frozen Food Specialist of Britain
Iceland Supermarket, often shortened to just Iceland, is a chain of supermarkets operating in Britain. They sell a range of typical supermarket foods such as meat, fruit, and vegetables but place an emphasis on frozen foods and convenience meals. Here, you can find all daily essentials such as milk, bread, eggs, and packaged foods. However, a large portion of the store is dedicated to frozen items. Not only is there a variety of frozen desserts, but customers can also find frozen meats and snack foods. If the opening hours of an Iceland store near you aren’t convenient, you can opt for a home delivery service, which is free over a certain spend. They have more than 800 supermarkets across the UK. Iceland is also known for its advertising campaigns, often featuring well-known celebrities, with the catchphrase “Mum’s gone to Iceland” being one of the best-known in the UK.
Iceland's extensive network of stores is found on high streets and in shopping precincts in over 280 major UK towns and cities. Those living in larger cities like Newcastle, Edinburgh, and Reading have access to more Iceland stores than those in smaller, less-populated areas. Identifying an Iceland store is easy due to their distinct branding: the Iceland logo is in white text on a bold two-toned orange background, and the rest of the storefront is usually orange, making it stand out on the high street.
Iceland's store opening hours may vary, but most locations follow similar schedules. They are open seven days a week, though specific times may depend on location. From Monday to Friday, stores are generally open between 8 am and 7 pm. On Saturdays, hours remain the same, but on Sundays, stores are typically open from 10 am to 4 pm. Holiday hours may vary on days like New Year's Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Christmas, Boxing Day, and bank holidays. To avoid disappointment, it's advisable to check a specific branch's hours or use a store locator.
While Iceland is a well-known supermarket, some facts about the business and its operations may surprise the general public. Here are five interesting things about Iceland:
- They sponsored the TV show I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here for many years.
- They removed palm oil from their own-brand products for environmental reasons.
- After acquiring a chain of rival stores, they couldn’t refurbish them quickly enough, so they had to include the other store’s name in their advertising.
- Iceland has a store in Iceland!
- The founders were fired from Woolworths after starting the business but later bought out Woolworths in 2009.
Iceland supermarkets specialise in selling frozen foods, offering a range of frozen meats, vegetables, desserts, pizzas, and convenience meals. However, they also sell fresh produce, including fresh meats, as well as confectionery, snacks, and baked goods. Iceland is known for its range of £1 products and also offers household cleaning items. One notable service is home delivery—customers can shop in-store and request delivery to their home if they spend over a certain amount.
The first Iceland branch was established in 1970 in Shropshire by business partners Peter Hinchcliffe and Malcolm Walker, with the name suggested by Mrs. Walker. At the time, both partners were working for Woolworths, but once their store manager discovered their new venture, they were fired. Ironically, Iceland went on to buy Woolworths when it went bust in 2009. Within eight years, the duo had opened over 25 stores. Iceland continued expanding by acquiring other businesses, and at one point, was owned by Icelandic banks. Recently, the company opened a new distribution centre and created more jobs. They continue to operate successfully in the UK and Ireland.
