Budgens PLC
 PROFILE
Budgens may no longer bring groceries to your door, but you can certainly pick them up on the corner. The company offers brand-name and private-label fresh and convenience food items, spirits, and groceries in its more than 200 supermarkets and convenience stores in southern England. The stores operate under various names, including Convenience, Metro, and Village. Budgens halted business at its e-commerce operation, Budgens Direct, in 2000 in order to develop its convenience store concept (Budgens Express). It plans to focus on its Budgens Locals franchise program, which supplies fresh foods and Budgens-brand goods to independent grocers. Irish supermarket giant Musgrave owns 28% of the company.
