Tesco Plans To Start Selling Online In Shanghai

Tesco China said it will start selling online in the country and will first launch the service in Shanghai. Tesco’s ecommerce strategy will include food, vegetables, fruits, and everyday use products. Planning to use its own logistics system, Tesco will aim to reduce costs by initially covering only the inner regions of the city. Tesco’s move is in response to online operations of other major retailers in the country, including Wal-Mart, Carrefour, and local company NGS Supermarket. Tesco also said its retail stores in the city will deliver products purchase by consumers online.
