I strongly believe that Tesco -booker deal is not in the interest of retailers . question to ask is why entity like Tesco is buying booker when they already hold 26% of the market ? answer is simple . they can crush the wholesale market independents . once they have wiped out competition , than what is stopping them raising their prices from cash and carries ? have they not done similar tactics where they had opened new stores ? Tesco is no charity as they need maximum profit from their investments . the biggest lie the supermarkets promote of creating jobs and better pricing have been exposed as a lie . the fact remains that independents employ more ppl for every £ gone through their tills compared to supermarkets . the trouble is independents cant look / think beyond the tip of their noses to take in account future implications . the supermarkets have spent loads of money to research soft points of independents and to target them with warm words ..... nisa -coop is the same scenario . warm words and no guarantees . throw 20 pieces of silver and let the fools follow like sheep . .
