Tesco: Nothing will stop them …

“Tesco has been accused of using underhand tactics after it used a local retailer to “front” a planning application for a massive supermarket development.

The application for an 80,000 square foot store in Barnstaple, Devon, was submitted in the name of local retailer Brian Ford’s, despite Tesco having acquired the independent retailer a year earlier.

No mention was made of Tesco’s involvement in the scheme, which will, if permission is granted, be built on the site of the existing Brian Ford’s store.”
