tesco have over 520,000 Employees and all of them must have accumulated experience and skills for their job.

Tesco became so successful when they analysed what people were buying and made their own products and lowered the prices. Also, because Tesco try to make their products cheaper than other stores like Asda and Sainsbury’s etc.

A lot of people have an internet connection so it’s an easy way for Tesco to sell their products. Tesco also have an iPhone app which is also successful and giving Tesco a bigger market.

On a club card for every one pound you spend you get a point, the points are exchanged for Tesco products or to use in the petrol
