Why do we need a Tesco Store?  Isn't there enough with Mercadona, Lidl, AldI,  Consum and Dia.

Does anybody really eat Paxo I wonder.

I read the article on murcia today. com

What are your thoughts folks.

What's the problem with a new food shop? Granted, as you say, there are already plenty around but if people cannot live without UK brands then the choice is theirs, as is the choice not to go there. Can only assume that the research has been done to show it will be viable. Time will tell.

Not for me thanks.

Probably be busy for a few weeks then tail right off.

English brands are available already in Consum & in the mini market on A if you really want them.

Biggest attraction of this new supermarket is its Sunday opening hours I would think.

Mercadona steadfastly refuses to open Sundays.

Plus Mercadona re building a massive new store on that new retail park near Aldi.

Competition is good, prices will fall and choice will rise.

If Tescos bring the wide range of vegetarian products that they have in their UK stores then I would definitely welcome them.

I have heard that there is life outside of Camposol, I'm not so sure, but it may be true?
