About Bónus

Bónus is the Icelandic discount grocery chain with the pink piggy-bank logo, founded in 1989 and now the price benchmark most Icelandic households shop against. Hagar says its promise is the lowest prices without compromising quality, and it is the larger half of the group's Icelandic grocery business. Stores trading under the Bónus name in the Faroe Islands belong to the group's Faroese arm SMS rather than to the Icelandic chain.
