From The Guardian:
[More than 1,800 jobs are at
risk at Tesco, after the retailer
said it would cut staff at
its large in-store bakeries to
adapt to changing consumer tastes.
The supermarket chain said it would
do less baking from scratch in
stores from May onwards, and
would require fewer bakery
staff as a result.
Tesco said customers are buying
fewer traditional loaves of bread,
and are increasingly buying
different options such as
wraps, bagels and flatbreads.
Jason Tarry, the chief executive
of Tesco’s UK and Irish business,
said: “We need to adapt to
changing customer demand
and tastes for bakery products
so that we continue to offer
customers a market-leading
bakery range in store.”]
