Sainsbury's Insurance

Back in 1997, Sainsbury's became the first major British supermarket to offer customer banking services. Jointly owned by J. Sainsbury plc and HBOS (Halifax Bank of Scotland), Sainsbury's Bank has opened over two million customer accounts. It came as no surprise to see Sainsbury's expand their personal finance offering to their customer to include Sainsbury's Insurance policies.

Even less of a surprise (considering the Halifax Bank of Scotland banking relationship) that Sainsbury's Insurance chose to use Esure Insurance to arrange and underwrite the Sainsbury's Car Insurance policies. Esure Insurance are also part of the HBOS Group of companies and they not only underwrite for Sainsbury's Insurance, but also for Halifax Insurance itself.

Today, Sainsbury's Insurance boasts a varied portfolio of insurance products. This includes solutions for car, home, travel, life and pet insurance - all under the Sainsbury's Insurance trusted brand name. In order to offer you these products, Sainsbury's Insurance has teamed up with Halifax Insurance, AXA Insurance, St Andrew's Insurance and Legal & General Insurance to perform the underwriting and administration duties. However, your Sainsbury's Insurance policies will always be provided to you with the Sainsbury's brand name and their customer service. This allows Sainsbury's Insurance to maintain the high standards which are expected of the Sainsbury's brand.

With access to more than 16 million customer shopping visits each week, Sainsbury's Insurance benefits from the exposure it can generate within its many stores across the UK. Backed up by the well established HBOS Group insurance services, the Sainsbury's Insurance offering is as polished as they come.
