Food waste
In 2014/15 we have calculated that
55,400 tonnes of food were wasted
in Tesco stores and distribution centres
in the UK which is equivalent to 0.9%
of the number of food products we sold
in our stores over the same period. The
chart on the right shows the breakdown
of this food waste by category. This has
decreased by 1,180 tonnes compared
to 2013/14.
