Children visiting Morrisons stores nationwide will be able to pick up a free orange from Market Street on selected England and Scotland match days throughout the tournament, whilst stocks last.
Football’s coming home and so is a healthy match-day snack. Morrisons is bringing a juicy twist to the summer’s football celebrations by giving away completely free oranges to kids.
In a nostalgic nod to the classic grassroots football tradition of orange slices at half-time, children visiting English or Scottish Morrisons stores can score a free orange on England and Scotland match days throughout the group stages.
The fruity freebie officially kicks off on 14 June for Scotland’s opening game, followed by their fixtures on 19 and 24 June. Three Lions fans can grab theirs for England’s big games on 17, 23 and 27 June.
It is not the first time the supermarket has looked after its youngest shoppers. This exciting tournament giveaway builds on Morrisons highly popular, long-standing initiative of giving away free fresh fruit to kids in all its supermarkets, which has been running since 2018 to help families hit their 5-a-day.
Whether the family is screaming at the telly from the sofa, throwing a wild match-day party, or the kids are chasing their own football glory in the back garden, Morrisons is making sure young supporters stay match-ready. The oranges will be available to little shoppers on Morrisons Market Street on select dates while stocks last.
Welsh fans will not miss out on the action, as customers visiting Morrisons stores in Wales will be able to pick up free fruit for kids at their local Market Street as per usual.
Jacob Uren, senior citrus trader at Morrisons, said: “Encouraging children to enjoy fresh fruit has long been important to us at Morrisons, and orange slices are such a nostalgic part of football culture. We hope our free oranges help keep little fans refreshed, energised and ready to cheer on England and Scotland this summer.”
