Re: Changes on the High Street
Quote:
Quote from The Sun: Tesco is preparing to scrap its Metro format and rebrand the 147 branches as either Express or Extra superstores.
Britain’s largest supermarket chain is making the changes due to declining sales at the Metro stores, which are sized between its convenience format Express and its full-size Extra stores.
The rebranding will take place over the summer, with 89 stores to become Tesco Express and the remaining 58 to be superstores.
The grocer began restructuring its Metro store estate in 2019 after sales declined amid tough competition from other retailers.
Staff were informed of the changes yesterday, and there will be no further redundancies on top of the 4,500 jobs cut when the restructure was launched.
No stores are expected to close as a result of the changes, and the sites will remain open as the new fascias are installed over the coming months.
