Parent company We focus on great value and convenient shopping across our family of brands, from Argos, Nectar and Habitat to Sainsbury’s Bank, Smart Charge and Tu. What’s next for Sainsbury’s? We’ve put food back at the heart of our business and we’re taking Sainsbury’s to the next level. SAINSBURY’S has issued a major update on plans to close more Argos stores. The supermarket, which owns Argos, will shut 20 standalone stores in the next financial year as it looks to move the brand’s presence away from the high street and into supermarkets.
