Introduction to the supermarket industry
Supermarkets are the self service stores that are well organized and offer merchandise
and food products. In the starting years, the shopping process was quite slow. The customer
number was attended within the store and relied over their staff (Clarke, Bennison and Guy
1994). The old trends of the company were transformed into the new trends related to retailing
and making the shopping, a more easy process for the customers in the certain passage of time.
In the year 1990, the key changes, this happened in the retail market, mainly in the developing
country all round the globe (Clarke, Bennison and Guy 1994). It is viewed that enhancing section
of middle class along with the availability of ready to eat products and certain examples fuel the
modern retailing trends process. In the present time, customers are smarter and have limited time
(Clarke, Bennison and Guy 1994). Therefore, in order to offer the customer experience, it is
required by the retailer to adopt the technologies innovative methods.

retailer due to its turnover growth, sales as well as profitability (Drejer 2000). Through acquiring
small competitors, along with strategies and innovative ways in developing the store by 2000,
Tesco was able to transform the company into the multinational operator with 72% of small
convenience supermarket stores of UK (Drejer 2000). The leadership of the company in UK
helped the company in becoming successful and gained competitive advantage over its
competitors, such as Wal-Mart, Sainsbury, and Asda. Being the dominant leader, the company
has to come across barriers related to competition and restrictions on land use. In the year 2009,
Tesco announced about its yearly sale of £60 billion along with its profit of £30 billion in the
year 2008-09 (Drejer 2000).

Tesco claim itself as part of cartel, along with this, they have also experienced the
scrutiny of media. The sales figures of the company depicted that around £1.69 billion was
gained in the year 2011 (Flavián, Haberberg and Polo 2002). It was quite interesting to know that
despite of all the recession that occurred in 2010, Tesco had the recorded profit for its retailers in

company has even opened the Tesco Hold Exchange, and the same was also launched in the year
2011. The company even provides the points of club card on the items purchased (Flavián,
Haberberg and Polo 2002).
TESCO SWOT Analysis
Strength- Tesco is popular for its low price items (Graiser and Scott 2004). The company
strength lies in its finance through its insurance sector. Other factor is related with increasing
internet sales. The brand recognition of Tesco is its strength (Graiser and Scott 2004).
Weakness- the weakness of the company relies on its sales in UK market. Even the Tesco
business model presently being used is suitable for the market of UK. The company is also
suffering from the bad debt and insurance claims (Graiser and Scott 2004).
Opportunities- Tesco has attained opportunities for high growth in the market of Asia and
Europe. The increase of online displays the wide opportunities in coming period.
Strategic Management and Leadership
10
Threats-Enhancing fair trade cost might result into the decrease in sales that might affect the
profits (Graiser and Scott 2004). Along with this, changes in purchasing trends in the market of
UK might create threat for the company.
TESCO Operations in UK
In the market of UK, the Tesco store tries to categorize in six variant forms, relying over the
product range and size.
1. Tesco Superstores- they are standard supermarkets, small non food products and
groceries as compared to Tesco Extra (Johnson and Scholes 2003).
2. Tesco Extra- They is town supermarkets, but their size is large.
3. Tesco Express- they hold the area of around 2200 square feet, and offer mainly food and
daily routine essential products (Johnson and Scholes 2003).
4. Tesco Metro- These are big stores, similar to Tesco Superstores, but these lies between
the Tesco Express stores and Tesco Supermarkets in context of size, and are mainly
based over high streets and city centers of the small town (Johnson and Scholes 2003).
5. Tesco Home plus- They is the first venture of non food items in the UK. These stores are
mainly located in high streets or either at dense public shopping malls.
6. One Stop- These are small stores as compared with Tesco Express. This store does not
include the Tesco name, and is explored in UK small communities (Johnson and Scholes
2003).
PESTLE Analysis
Strategic Management and Leadership
11
Political- Due to the reasons of employment legalization, the state tries to motivate the
multinational companies to preset various types of labor demands, which starts from part time,
low, paid, highly paid as well as centrally located jobs (Lindgreen and Hingley 2003). In the last
size years, Tesco has tried to procured employment to around 2000 people who were
unemployed as per the scheme of job guarantee (Lindgreen and Hingley 2003). The aim of these
schemes is to offer the employment and training to the people, who are workers for first time,
old, and single parent. In the year 2004, in UK, small grocery stores has given employment to
around 500000 people, having the turnover of £21 billion, and even the company manages to
give employment to 250000 people, through its turnover of £29 billion (Lindgreen and Hingley
2003).
Economic- the food retailing market of UK is quite mature as well as highly competitive, and
this market is badly impacted through the increasing inflation in food sector. The domestic
market diffusion as well as the desire for the expansion is treated the enhancing globalization in
the retail sector through merger and acquisition, as well as franchising business (Lindgreen and
Hingley 2003). Supermarkets in Britain are trying to open the stores in small high streets in order
to cash the increasing demand for the convenience shopping in the urban areas (Lindgreen and
Hingley 2003).
Social/culture- Demographic changes could be termed as an example for the increase of high
percent of older generation, in which there are less housewives and the complete trend is towards
eating outside (Lindgreen and Hingley 2003). It is noted that retailers in UK are trying to
respond towards the changes through emphasizing over the added services and items. Moreover,
the new trends are related to supply chain along with various other cost reduction operations as
well as share of own label in business (Lindgreen and Hingley 2003).
Strategic Management and Leadership
12
Technology- Changes taking place in retailing methods like sale of garments through online
channel is now becoming common in retail sector (Myers 2004). The management and the
companies administration are considering IT systems that could easily accessed by the secure
servers, and offer flexibility in business run (Myers 2004). As Sweden is considered as forefront
in advancement of technology through its local companies such as Ericsson, even Tesco could
enjoy the distribution channel and comprehensive logistics (Myers 2004).
Environment- Since 2003, pressure has increased on the large organizations as well as on
managers in UK, and the main government motivation is to make people aware of their
responsibility towards the society and act in a way that could provide benefit to the complete
society (Palmer 2004). In the area of food retailing, the key issue is environment, and the main
area to act is social responsible manner. Therefore, through exploring the movement, Tesco can
try to develop the committee for corporate responsibility in order to meet its obligation towards
the society (Palmer 2004).
Porter Five Forces Model
Threat of New Entrants- the UK grocery market is basically dominated through the small
competitors such as Asda, Sainsbury, and Safeway, which has around 70% of the market share
and the small chains of Budgens, Somerfield, and Waitrose has the market share of 10% (Acur
and Bititci 2004). Beginning from 80th
, the system of grocery retailing is represented through the
business of supermarket. For instance, there are two reasons that could be mentioned;
requirement for enough capital due to the huge fixed costs and the other one is supply chain that
is highly developed (Acur and Bititci 2004). This is also exploring in the wide investment
Strategic Management and Leadership
13
complete through the huge chain like Tesco, in technological advancement for the stock control
system and for checkouts, which affected the new entrants (Acur and Bititci 2004).
Supplier bargaining power- These supply side representatives are influenced through the main
grocery chains and are also under the continuous pressure for losing the business against the
supermarket chains (Acur and Bititci 2004). In result of that, it also improves the strong position
of the dominant stores such as Tesco and Asda in either promising the better cost from the
suppliers that small market chain are not able to complete it. The competition commission of UK
explored that Tesco has paid its suppliers around 4% that is below the average of industry in
2000 (Acur and Bititci 2004). In the year 2005, Financial Mail began its campaign of
supermarket bullies for uncovering the cases of creating pressure on the farmers through the
huge chain of grocery. Tesco has different cases related to poor treatment of suppliers (Acur and
Bititci 2004). However, it is noted that Office of Fair trading mentions that the code is not
effectively working, but suppliers are associated with de-listing the supermarket conditions if
any official complain came (Acur and Bititci 2004).
Customers bargaining power- the popular club card and loyalty card of the company could still
be named as the successful way of attracting the customers through the maintenance strategy,
which could play important role in financial profitability of Tesco (Anon 2004). Even brand
Tesco could enhance the customer base due to its permanent tendency for fulfilling the needs of
the customers, customizing the services in order to maintain the low cost, along with constant in-
store promotions (Anon 2004). An important change has happened in the habits of shopping of
the population of UK in the present years. In the year 2005, Tesco has the huge range of products
that were of fair trade in UK, and it presented through the product line of 91- fair trade, by
Strategic Management and Leadership
14
comparing the same in context of 40000 products that seems to look small achievement in
helping countries of third world (Anon 2004).
Threat of Substitutes- in the small chain of grocery industry related to convenience stores as
highly emerging industry (Harvey 2007). In the case of Asda, Tesco as well as Sainsbury, they
are trying to acquire the lying operations at small scale and opening of Tesco Express and Tesco
Metro in the city as well as local towns (Harvey 2007). Through the huge share in the retailing
grocery market presented by the chain of Tesco, small local shops could be considered as
substitutes. Most of the local retailers are not easy to compete with Tesco, as the company has
immense purchasing power (Harvey 2007). On an average the contracts of Tesco with the market
wholesalers is 11.5% that is less than retailers and that are private independent. In UK, Londis,
which is a corner shop has also claimed that they it is cheaper to purchase items from Tesco as
compared to wholesalers (Harvey 2007).
Competitors bargaining power- the market environment of retailers could be easily characterized
as market dominating through huge players with crucial increase, emergent concentration of
retailers, increasing size of stores, as well as use of wide range of formats that is considered as
significant characteristic of sector (Helft 2001). It‟s mentioned earlier that all the buying power
of the retailing food industry is acquired in small number of the retail purchasers (Helft 2001).
Beside the market could be explained as the mature operations, where growth is quite
challenging as it could serve as the diversification driver in the area of non-food items;
moreover, consumers are getting more and more sophisticated as well as demanding, but the big
players like Tesco are trying to accurate constantly with huge amount of consumer information,
which could be made used for the purpose of predicting and meeting the changed preferences
(Porter 1980).
Strategic Management and Leadership

BCG Matrix
Boston Matrix is a marketing tool, in which the business could pale the items under every stage,
and every part of the matrix possesses its unique role (Tran 2005).
Dogs- It includes those products that has low share in the low market growth, and don‟t generate
business cash, for example Tesco lard.
Question Mark- It includes those products that have fewer shares in the increasing growth of
market, and they also consume recourses as well as try to generate less in return (Tran 2005).
They even use more money in the business for the purpose of increasing market share, for
example Tesco mobile (Tran 2005).
Cash Cows- it includes those items that hold high share in the decreasing market growth. Cash
cows tries to generate more revenue than invested, for example own brand food.
Stars- it include those products that are high in increasing market having high percent of share.
Stars try to generate high income, for example finest range of Tesco (Tran 2005).
Strategic Management and Leadership
16
Tesco has tied to balance its portfolio, which is significant, because the funds that are created
through the cash cows are used for making turn questions in stars that might become cash cows
(Tran 2005).
Value Chain analysis
Primary Activities
Inbound Logistics- Inbound logistics is placed in beginning of the value chain, as it creates
earlier opportunity in terms of creating the value. Tries also tries to maintain the consumer
preference level in stores through enhancing the distribution system efficiency (Jordan 2007). In
applying the procedure of quality choice it focus over damaged products and services, in order to
offer good opportunity for minimizing the price unfairness; therefore, it ties to prevent the price,
which is passed to the consumers (Jordan 2007).
Operations- the Tesco production components activities are basically service oriented. For the
purpose of obtaining future competitive benefits, Tesco tries to expand further in context of
operating hours, where the company could open its Express and metro stores (Jordan 2007).
Outbound Logistics- it comes under third stage of value chain, which is focused over providing
items to customers. Presently, Tesco adds value in the services of home delivery (Jordan 2007).
However, other items that are tangible, which are enhanced are trolley collector as well as
parking facility in order to gain competitive benefits, as it could add value through saving the
time of customers through enhancing turnaround (Jordan 2007).
Marketing and Sales- It is placed under the downstream components related to value chain. Club
card offers the loyalty and discounts to the customers (Jordan 2007). However, it is noted that
Strategic Management and Leadership
17
Tesco could try to attract customers through advertising, TV, local newspapers and radio.
Through more sophisticated customers and the ethical business practice awareness, it might
provide the organization with certain barriers in context of selling the products that are
environment friendly (Jordan 2007).
Support Activities
HRM- It is considered as downstream activity that includes complete selection till development
of management. Tesco also invest in customer service, in which training is connected with pay;
therefore, staff is highly motivated towards learning and also tries to encourage them to enhance
their approach towards service and consumer provision quality (Jordan 2007).
Technology development- it is considered as downstream activity as it offers new innovative
solutions and product range, which could help in anticipating the needs of customers (Jordan
2007). It also remains as main competitive benefits that add value in brand name of Tesco for
providing vitality to product (Jordan 2007).
TASK 3- FUTURE: Strategic Direction for the future
Future strategy of TESCO
Tesco has plan for creating the employment through providing around 16000
opportunities of job, in which the company is planning to start 9000 jobs in the market of UK
(Finch 2004). The company is also planning to open seventy; Beauty Salon and by the year 2020,
the company is planning to reduce carbon footprint by around 30% (Finch 2004).
Financial performance
Strategic Management and Leadership
18
Tesco is listed on London Stock Exchange, along with Irish Stock Exchange as Tesco
Plc. In the year 1997, the turnover of the company was £17158 million and in 2011, it was
around £67573 million (Finch 2004).
Consumer Decision Tree
Relying over the focus group and decisions about the customer purachse, the decision tree of
customers is created. During the changes in lifestyle and market trends, customers could refer the
functions, before purchasing the cheese (Finch 2004).
Price is the key factor, which could create influence on the consumption. Customers
could refer cost, before they make any purchase, and they would most likely to prefer that
products whose price is less. If Tesco follows promotional activities, the promotional items will
be consider as their first preference, like discount and purchase one and get another free (Finch
2004). Other key factor relates with flavors. Various types of cheese hold variant usage like
Mozzarella and Cheddar. Customers selecting various flavors for cooking sandwiches, pizza and
pasta- Under the segment of flavor, customers could refer brand, origin place and whether it‟s
healthy or not (Finch 2004).
Healthy- it follows a crucial trend in the market of Irish food. More and more Irish customers
place their demand for healthy foods. There are some customers, who would like to have low or
half fat cheese, along with other nutritional ingredients (Finch 2004).
During the course of complete research, Irish customers will purchase Irish items. As compared
with overseas brands of cheese, Irish brands will hold high awareness as well as market share.
Strategic Management and Leadership
19
They purchase Irish cheese on regular basis, as it gives guarantee of high quality (O‟Halloran
2009).
