"Tesco Supports Micro Producers" features in local news....

It was fantastic to see the local Bedfordshire news featuring an article about our local micro producers.

I ended up buying a selection of 6 bottles and jars from each of them... I have to say, it was the best Tomato Ketchup, Berry Jam and Mango Chutney I've ever tasted. 

Well done Humbers Homemade, Paul's Pickles and Sinclair Condiments.

Simon, our non food manager talks about the new range...

Having listened to our customers, we have transformed our non-food range within the store. The range, packaging and branding have all been updated, to ensure its more relevant for our customers, offering superb choice of quality at excellent prices.

You will see some exciting differences, lot's of new Cook and Home Shop products, a more focussed range of Electrical products and pick up toys all under £20.

Here's what some of our customers have said..

"Although a lot of products have moved around the Cook Shop looks fantastic- there is a lot more choice, it looks classy and the shelves are clean and tidy"

"the new range definitely enhances the store offer"

To make these changes, our team worked tirelessly through the night, I'd like to send a huge thank-you for doing such an excellent job: Sue, Dian, John W, Sue M, Lisa, Annette, Jimmy, Alex, Michael, James B and Peter S.S.
