Sainsbury’s the big winner as Tesco wobbles
Britain’s supermarket sector grew by 4.8 per cent in the 12 weeks to Christmas Day, but lagged behind the 5.9 per cent rise in food price inflation, according to data released yesterday by Kantar Worldpanel.
Tesco, which delivers a trading update tomorrow, was the big loser, with its market share dropping to 30.1 per cent from 30.5 per cent year-on-year.
