Tesco is currently the largest supermarket chain in the UK with a market share of 28.4%.
In 1919 Jack Cohen sold groceries from a Hackney market stall in the East End of London.
The name Tesco first appeared in 1924, when Cohen relabelled tea using the initials from the supplier TES and the first two letters of his surname (CO).
The first Tesco store was opened in 1931 in Burnt Oak, Edgware. The first self-service shop opened in St Albans in 1948.
Cohen ran Tesco with the philosophy of ‘pile it high and sell it cheap’; success was based on expansion by takeovers and mergers with competitors, which continued after his retirement in 1969.
Tesco offers a range of travel money services including currency exchange and prepaid travel money cards. Here’s an overview of the pros and cons to help you decide if the British supermarket chain is the right choice for your travel money needs.
