George Style

the early days
George was launched in 1990 when George Davies spotted a niche opportunity that no one else could see; for quality, value clothing ranges in supermarkets. George joined forces with ASDA - a British supermarket chain which retails food, clothing, general merchandise, toys and financial services.

George House - Student Placements
Many universities offer sandwich courses that
include a 12 month industry placement after two
years of study. As a student this allows you to
put your learning into practice within industry.
At George, we're committed to developing talent
and skills within education. So, we offer a
number of paid student placements each year in
such areas as Buying, Design, Merchandising,
Garment, Technology and Supply.

what's our mission?
Our aim is to be the number one for volume market share in the UK by 2012. We'll achieve this by:
Constantly striving for excellence within all aspects of the business.
Ensuring that fantastic products are delivered to our customers in a great shopping environment.
Our colleagues delivering legendary service in stores.
There are also areas of the business in which we're investing; such as our global market and online shopping, both of which show fantastic potential.
how will you be involved?
In order to succeed, it's important that all
colleagues work together towards a common goal. Company and department team meetings, or huddles as we call them, are held on a regular basis to ensure that everyone is kept informed with how George and ASDA are performing, what the challenges are ahead, and what the business will be doing to meet those challenges; so all colleagues have full involvement in where the business is heading.
