True, there will be a reduction in plastic but there will be an increase in handling costs to stock shelves, to pick goods and to go through checkout.
Charoen Pokphand,which owns Thailand's 7-Eleven convenience chain; Thailand's biggest department store operator Central Group; and TCC Group, controlled by brewing tycoon Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi, the FT said. They each submitted formal bids in mid-January to buy Tesco Lotus and are starting second-round talks in late Feb/March.
I've heard whispers of a special div , only whispers mind.
Would this mean a special div?
No further news means a sale is still being considered.
Would probably come down to price offered.
I'm sure that they would accept an amount in the £7.5 to £8 Billion range
Someone mention Tesco selling the Asian side of the business before xmas does anyone know anything or heard anything
Great move great publicity - simple solutions are the best.
Tesco aims to ditch 67 MILLION pieces of plastic by removing wrapping from packs of baked beans, tuna and soup... but promise shoppers they'll still get the same discount for multi-buys.
The landmark move, which applies to cans of baked beans, tuna, soup and other products, will eliminate 350 tons of plastic from the environment.And shoppers will not have to pay more for the items, which will be sold individually in Tesco’s 3,300 stores from March.
I went into M&S on Wednesday in Liverpool . lots of footfall , but not many actually buying clothes , so their worries are not over yet as regards clothing , but the food hall was quite busy and queues at all tills. Perhaps Tesco far east sale will come to fruition , as interest seems to be mounting , so I am just holding on at the moment , despite drop over recent days. Today's rise is encouraging .
I sold 400 last week at 256 to keep myself ticking over , if when you took the saye out at 150 5 years ago and they’d said it would hit 250p that’s a 66% profit you’d have snapped it out of their hands ..( like I did but I always predicted £3 just short then ) Also bear in mind the dividend will almost be 10p soon so they will also bear fruit of nearly 6.7% on that £1.50 saye price.. I was contemplating selling 5k and putting it in marks and spencer any thoughts, I went in there today, the cafe was packed, shoppers usually in 40 years up plus bracket. but I’d say 100 in the clothes store 50 in the food hall , plus when their tie up with Ocado gets up and running that’s should give them a boost perhaps maybe they could revisit £2.50 in the future.
The Far East needs a lot of investment to bring it up to speed so they can sell for a good price and concentrate on the home front.
Uncertainty regarding the Far East sale is dragging this down!
Unfortunately I am waiting for a SAYE scheme to cash in on 1st March and am watching the rewards drop daily!
Anyone out there to make a comment on far east sale worries ? Or am I the last one still standing.
Tesco beats rivals with 0.1% Christmas sales rise. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/business/tesco-beats-rivals-with-01percent-christmas-sales-rise/ar-BBYM2OT?li=AA54rU&ocid=mailsignout
Well I have to say our section manager was slightly pulling her hair out , so I’m sure she relaid it back to the night manager. Who would of relaid it back to the store manager and so forth.. “ well you d think unless they want their promotions.!”
I would convey to the top but already I’ve by passed the night manager to go to the store manager and the night manager branded me vindictive. Not long to my 30 years .so I’m not going to rock the boat until I’ve secured two more things. then I’m unleashing both barrels but drastic will be gone by then.
You need to convey this information to the top , as the ivory tower brigade often do not pay attention to the local areas concerns. We all want Tesco to succeed , and passing this information up is very important. The staff are the Company and you are the most important asset a company has. Good luck , and may I wish you a Happy New Year and hope things improve.
So they employed 15,000 temps( mainly agency staff) for the 2 weeks before Xmas.
Since they shafted us with getting rid of the staff bonus and overtime is now just the hourly rate.. of the 10 regular staff that work my fresh section on nights NOONE did overtime!!no one!! And just to give you a feel of how god damn useless some of them were it took one guy ALL night just to work 9 cages of juice I’d take 2 hours to do! And 3agency staff took all night to work cooked ham and sausage rolls!! Which would take are regular employee a night.. so basically it took 3 times as much to do the same job £10 an hour to £30 an hour not including what the agency got paid to supply them. Now tell me that’s money well spent? !
Also no canteen now so the Xmas meal turns into a buffet more moral list there too . I want the company too succeed as I want the shares to do well but they’ve well and truly lost the plot with the staff.
thanks rmr for the reply - esp. without getting all uptight like many would - take care
ok, if that is what you saw locally I am in no position to argue, however I would be certain this is a 'local' issue, perhaps more as a result of poor local ordering rather than a company change of policy. There is absolutely no way Charles Wilson would countenance not supplying GB meat in some form, nor the customers to that mind! Suggest you speak to the Store Manager concerned, I am sure they could explain. I no longer work for the business but it is well run to be sure.
I can assure you my comment and observation was WHOLLY CORRECT, walking round the booker meat dept the last time I was there only meat from Brazil was available. I do not doubt what you say, in the past things might have been different but NOT when I was there. I have often bought meat from there but will not buy meat imported from destructed rainforest lands. British farmers deserve to be supported by British retailers and Tesco should do their bit, not to mention all the environmental issues.
That Xmas card story stinks! Wouldn't be a surprise if it turns out to be faked in some way. The message is written in near-perfect English -- by "Chinese prisoners". Found by an angel 6yo with compo face. It all looks too perfect. Too setup.
DEBS1 - unsure as to the the basis of your comments, but I can clarify one thing for absolute certainty, your point re Booker is WHOLLY INCORRECT, I worked for Booker for a period of time and their sourcing of meat products is excellent, they offer a wide variety of meat from a number of countries based on a Good / Better / Best hierarchy and they do sell Brazilian, but also meat from many other countries including the UK. When I was there the UK meat was from Ireland, the exact same factory who supplied M&S, that is fact, they also sold Scottish from time to time too.
Tesco charity Christmas cards are 'packed by Chinese prison SLAVES': Girl, six, discovers chilling note from Shanghai inmates inside £1.50 box

Debs 1 I think your facts are wrong regarding the Bookers Beef . Look at their websites and look where they source their meat from. My son worked for Bookers when he was at University , and British beef along with Argentinian , Australian and New Zealand was available along with some from Brasil . The answer is for all of us to cut down on red meat , if no demand no production , simple. If I go out for a meal , I find it very difficult to find Lite bite meals now . 4 ounces of meat is enough for anybody in a meal not 8 and 16 ounce steaks .
watch out with this share, Tesco are very poor on environmental issues and the word will get out soon. It will show Tesco in very bad light so just take care, even considering selling to get out at what really is a high price. I think the first issue is Bookers - only Brazilian beef available - no uk beef. More rain forest gone.
