Premium supermarket chain Booths has posted a 2.7% growth in like-for-like sales over the three weeks to 5 January 2020, according to a report in the Financial Times.
The company reported a total sales growth of 3.5% during this period, driven by orders from the Booths Christmas Book, which lists festive food and drinks produced by the company since the 1930s.
