The range is part of a series of changes Morrisons’ own-label offer, which will see 11,000 new or revamped products.
Morrisons said the revamp will see it move away from the conventional “good-better-best” model used by UK retailers to focus on “four key needs”, including convenience, responsible sourcing and health.
“The launch of M Kitchen is a huge step forward for Morrisons, creating a range of products that customers will literally want to cross the road to buy: making Morrisons a destination for dining in,” Morrisons commercial director Richard Hodgson said.
The retailer plans to launch further ranges in the coming weeks, with reports suggesting the company could unveil lines named M Savers and M Better For You.
