Tesco under fire for blocking rival stores opening nearby
Tesco has come under fire for stifling competition in the grocery market for up to 10 years, preventing rivals from opening stores near their own. The competition watchdog said it first approached the country's largest supermarket chain on the issue in 2018 after uncovering evidence it had been stopping landlords from letting property to rivals The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) said the supermarket may have reduced competition by unlawfully leaning on its landlords not to rent nearby sites to rivals, leaving shoppers worse off. The watchdog stopped short of fining Tesco because it is unable to do so under current rules.
