In mid April 2018 my local Tesco store put signs at its fills relating to the sales of energy drinks to under 16s. However they took down their ‘Think 25’ signs from the tills. Despite a lot of communication with Tesco the store has still not put the signs back up.

Tesco stores have been ignoring many of the voluntary guidelines suggested by RASG even though the Chair of RASG is Tesco UK Licensing Manager.

Only this week my local store has introduced another two promotions of alcohol with children’s products side by side.

I have also been asking Tesco stores since 2014 why there are no ‘Think 25’ signs at the majority of their stores at the self-service till areas.

Why should Tesco’s main competitors continue to adhere to voluntary guidelines when Tesco continue to ignore them?

It’s time for merchandising to be included in the Licensing Act.
