Tesco Sweeps The Board At Prestigious Industry Awards
Tesco’s newly
revamped finest* range has scooped 22 awards at The Grocer’s Own-Label Food and
Drink Awards, nearly a third of the total awards available. Overall, the
retailer picked up 29 Gold and 21 Silver Awards, more than any other
supermarket.
John Scouler,
Commerical Director at Tesco said, “We are absolutely delighted to have won so
many awards for the quality of our food. Over the last few years we’ve done a
huge amount of work to improve our own label products. Our finest* range is now
benchmarked against the very best food on the market and these awards show that
we’re getting it right. Even more importantly, our customers tell us that they
love the new products.”
Awards judge
Paul Beresford, MD of Cambridge Market Research, said, “While consumers are
turning to discounters for everyday basics, they still seek out treat-worthy
but good value purchases. Tesco has clearly found a winning formula for its
premium range.”
Research
conducted by Cambridge Market Research found that the award-winning finest*
products were seen as “new and different” by 67% of consumers, compared with
51% for all other entrants. finest* lines were also considered to be good
value, with 14 of the winning lines scoring higher than the category average.
