Britons will want to celebrate this summer -Morrisons boss

Tue, 11th May 2021 08:03

LONDON, May 11 (Reuters) - Britons' rising optimism over
COVID-19 cases, the success of the vaccine programme and an
improving economy will encourage them to celebrate events this
summer, including Euro 2020, the boss of supermarket chain
Morrisons said on Tuesday.

"That sense of optimism is percolating through the country
and it will lead to people wanting to celebrate events," Chief
Executive David Potts told reporters.

"We'll be doing everything we can to be part of that," he
said.
