Tesco is one of the worlds leading international retailers. Since the company first the trading name of Tesco, in the mid 1920s, the group has expanded into different formats, different markets and different sectors. The UKs leading retailer Tesco was floated on the stock exchange in 1947 and in 1995 took over rival Sainsburys position as the UK number one. The principal activity of the group is food retailing, with over 2,000 stores worldwide. Tesco has a long term strategy for growth, based on four key parts: growth in the Core UK business, to expand by growing internationally, to be as strong in non-food as in food and to follow customers into new retailing services. The company launched a home shopping service in 2000, allowing customers to order their shopping online. Tesco is now expanding its convenience stores and overseas into areas such as Taiwan, Malaysia, Poland, the US and Ireland.

cynic - I take it if you have not been in a Morrisons before, you certainty have not been in an Aldi or Lidl yet!! LOL!

regardless of today's blip full confidence in my buys here today

tescos as a shop i do not rate - well not the ones i've been in - they are more like warehouses - the staff imo are too young and inexperienced and dont seem to give a darn et cetera - prefer waitrose particulary at canary wharf, m&s, sainsbury and morrisons - attitude of staff and better all round quality of sevice and offers/ goods particulary deli counter, butcher etc

perversely still bought tsco as at this sp be rude not too lol!!!

interesting nice 100,000 buy just flew through!

That was me.. and it was a sell -):

waitrose just sells the same food as sains but for more money check the stockist .

if you want the best go to M/S or sains

i would say that is correct - waitrose i tend to use the most at CW - just for convenience more than anything - and probably a bit better than there normal stores as CW is their flagship store - i do go to m&s - tesco can not compare in all honesty

Cook your own food.....the precooked stuff is a recipe for a hotair balloon party all night !.

Have you considered using your local small shop for some guilty/wholesome food for a change if you mainly use the Slappermarkets now?.. or are you all lardo's

having now had a good look at update it is well over sold

.

rf 244 lol - and yep cook my own when i am able just dont get much spare time

It's not a person, it's a group of people.. A rather large group.

yep tanker - another item which analyst have picked up as a massive positive for tesco which some have missed is that 'But Tesco reported online sales growth in the UK of 14%, across food and non-food.'

not me stan!

roll on afternoon rally lol

I thought it was cured meat (pork) or is that lardon ?

Stan, I thought they were 'Lardys' not 'Lardos' or have we gone all European now?!!!

Yes its cured pork - it looks disgusting! Food: Lardo; the real thing

Good support around the 320p level historically. Now sub 330 again.
