Tesco Direct closing down 9 July 2018

The closure, which puts 500 jobs at risk, came as the Tesco group said it could not be made profitable as an independent company.

The website sold clothing and home ware, not food, and was the supermarket giant’s attempt to take on Amazon.

Now they will aim to combine all online sales, including items previously sold on Tesco Direct, on Tesco.com.

Good idea I thought, but dont go introducing silly third-party sellers, as this has been one of the problems behind Tesco's customers walking with their feet due to a complicated website experience and inflated prices.
