Morrisons has become the final one of the UK’s top-ten food retailers to join the British Retail Consortium.

The retailer, whose annual sales near £15 billion, was the largest UK retailer remaining a non-member.

The announcement was made by BRC director general Stephen Robertson at the organisation’s Annual Retail Industry Dinner.

Robertson said that Morrisons’ membership will provide the organisation with “a more comprehensive view of the sector’s priorities.”

Morrisons chief executive Marc Bolland said the supermarket would benefit from “the BRC’s trade body expertise”.
