LONDON (March 25, 2025) – Today, Whole Foods Market opened a new 21,800-square-foot store located at 120 King’s Road, SW3 marking an exciting expansion of the company’s presence in the United Kingdom. The new store includes an array of high-quality products, including organic and locally sourced items. Whole Foods Market’s Quality Standards prohibit over 300 preservatives, flavours, colours, sweeteners and other ingredients commonly found in food.
“I am thrilled to open the doors of our first Whole Foods Market in the U.K. in more than ten years here on King’s Road, an iconic street and London destination that is continuously evolving,” said Bianca Rojas, Store Team Leader at Whole Foods Market. “This store showcases the best of Whole Foods Market and what our customers have come to expect from our stores with fresh, high-quality foods, a strong focus on local producers, and innovative product discovery on every aisle. We can’t wait to welcome customers and bring a unique shopping experience to this neighbourhood.”
To celebrate opening day, customers enjoyed complimentary samples from local suppliers, freshly baked goods, and special giveaways. The first 200 shoppers in line received a limited-edition King’s Road Whole Foods Market tote bag and a Secret Saver voucher with exclusive discounts.
Whole Foods Market reinforced its commitment to local communities by making an opening-day food donation to The Felix Project, helping advance the nonprofit’s mission to redistribute food to where it’s needed most. Whole Foods Market’s ongoing partnerships with local organisations help address food insecurity and reduce food waste, reinforcing its mission to nourish neighbourhoods and support sustainable food systems. Additionally, the company donated funds to community-based organisations in the Chelsea area, including HTB Chelsea Shelter, Refettorio Feliz, the Kensington & Chelsea Foundation, and Bags of Taste.
