The unique design of our new depot ensures a truly multi-functional site capable of handling and distributing all types of goods as well as the manufacturing of fresh food. There is an incredible sense of pride in the longevity of our company and the fact we have stayed true to our roots for over 150 years. Our mission is simple, to be in business in another 150 years time. James Hall & Co. Ltd. currently operates under 9 divisions: James Hall & Co. (Holdings) Ltd. James Hall & Co. Ltd. James Hall & Co.

We are delighted to report the sports day run in Uganda by students from Our Lady’s Catholic College in Lancaster has been a success! 🎽 ⚾ Utilising SPAR Lancashire School Games T-shirts for the occasion, pupils from St Joseph’s School and St Kizito’s School competed in football matches, sporting challenges, and had the opportunity to try their hand at some new sports including rounders and tennis. The sport at the event served as a universal language between the visiting students and the pupils and it was a brilliant day of engagement in sport! 🙌 #SPAR #JamesHall #Retail #Community #School #Sport #Lancashire SPAR UK Active Lancashire SPAR International

Two amateur football clubs who we have supported as part of recent company-owned SPAR store launches have enjoyed success on the pitch in the 23-24 season, and they brought their respective trophies into store as a thank you for our sponsorship! ⚽ 🏆 Bishop Auckland Football Club brought the Northern League Division 1 trophy into SPAR Bishop Auckland after winning the league title and gaining promotion to the Northern Premier League Division One East. Bacup Borough Football Club, who play in the North West Counties Division 1 North, brought the Edward Case Cup into SPAR Bacup after winning it for the second year running, the first time in the club’s 144 year history they have secured back-to-back trophies. Congratulations to both clubs on these fantastic achievements! 👏 #SPAR #JamesHall #Retail #Community #Sport #Football #Sponsorship SPAR UK

Here are a few photos from the trek, and donations are still being gratefully received until Friday 26th July on the link here: https://lnkd.in/eibb5uVi #SPAR #ThereForYou #JamesHall #MarieCurie #Charity #Fundraising #Walking #Yorkshire SPAR UK
