Tesco To Launch Couture Clothing Range
Terry Green, chief executive of the UK’s largest retailer’s clothing unit Tesco Clothing, says the company is planning on launching a couture range of clothing on the retailer’s online store.
The range, which will be known as the F&F Couture online range of clothing, is the first move ever by a supermarket chain into high fashion retail, and will be launched with 16 items to begin with, that will sell for between £40 and £140.
Mr Green lauded the move as a new era for supermarket fashion, claiming the range offers a combination of high quality and affordable clothing.
Last week Mr. Green revealed that he will be stepping down as chief executive of Tesco clothing, after more than five years at the helm. His tenure as CEO was extremely successful with sales at the unit increasing from £700 million to more than £1 billion, and market share having risen from 7 per cent to 9 per cent during the time period.
Mr. Green’s previous position was chief executive of department store Debenhams.
Competition between supermarkets for clothing sales has become increasingly competitive of late, with the most recent set of blows being traded by Asda and Marks And Spencer over returns policies.

George At Asda Unveils Incredibly Generous Returns Policy
The UK’s second largest supermarket chain Asda is seeking to profit at the expense of rivals such as Marks & Spencer who have become increasingly tighter with their returns policy, and has chosen instead to offer an extremely generous returns policy of its own.
Asda, one of the UK’s largest clothing retailers, has unveiled a permanent 100 days no questions asked quality guarantee on all of its clothing items.
Asda has sought to hit back at the rise of disposable fashion, and through its returns policy enables customers to receive a full refund on the products, regardless of how many times the product has been washed and worn.
Fiona Lambert, brand director for George at Asda says the new policy is not merely aimed at advertising the quality of the products Asda retails, but also seeks to attract more customers to Asda stores across Britain.
The returns policy was first trialled with school uniforms last year, and Asda claims that on £9 million in sales, only £900 worth of goods were returned.
The returns policy is designed to win over Marks And Spencer customers angry that the retailer has cut back its returns policy twice in the last four years.
Marks And Spencer has reduced the maximum time period for returns from 90 days to 35 days, but insists the change will not affect the majority of its customers, who it says returns items fairly promptly anyway.

Small Business Worried By Number Of Supermarkets
New data released by the newspaper the Daily Mail suggests that more than two fifths of towns in Britain have at least five supermarket outlets within a ten minute drive of one another.
The report suggests that 42 per cent of all British towns were in such a position, with some chains owning more than one outlet within a ten minute drive of one other. The finding has alarmed small business.
David Amess, Conservative MP and and chairman of the All-Party Parliamentary Small Shops Group is calling for a government inquiry into the supermarket industry.
Mr. Amess would like the government to investigate claims that supermarket retail chains are choking high street business. Mr. Amess claims that the retailers, through the employment of high priced lawyers, are able to overturn decisions taken by local authority.
The rise of the supermarket in the UK contrasts significantly with the number of independent retailers, which has declined considerably from 500,000 in 145, to just 35,500 today.
The ‘big four’ supermarkets – Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s and Tesco have captured nearly 75 per cent of the £80 billion grocery sector.
Add to the mix the fact that the UK entered recession in 2008, and the story for independent retailers has not been good, with more than 2000 going out of business last year.
The diversification of supermarkets into multiple consumer segments has made it even harder for small businesses to be successful.

Sales Growth At British Supermarkets Slows
A new report issued by market research firm Kantar Worldpanel suggests that growth in sales at leading British supermarket chains slowed down to their lowest level in nearly two years.
The pace of growth in the market slowed to 5 per cent during the quarter ending February 21st, compared with 5.2 per cent in the preceding quarter.
A spokesperson for the research firm says the slow down in growth could be as a result of price cuts and price wars undertaken by many retailers. Some analysts suggests however that customer loyalty may be declining as a result of the economic downturn.
Asda was the leading beneficiary in February, after having seen declines in January. The retailer engaged in an aggressive marketing campaign which produced sales growth of 3.3 per cent during February compared with 2,1 per cent in January.
Despite the increase, Asda’s market share has fallen to 17 per cent from 17.2 per cent as perennial rival Tesco gained at its expense, increasing its market share by 0.3 per cent to 30.4 per cent of the total market after aggressively cutting its prices.
Some analysts have expressed concern at the performance of Sainsbury’s, whom many believe lags the traditional market leaders Tesco and Asda.
