There's no taste like home at the first Tesco branded store in Spain
The Food Co. store in the Puerto de Mazarrón is the first of its kind to open in Spain and brings the Tesco brand to the Spanish Costas for the first time.
The food Co. is open seven days a week as follows:
Monday to Saturday 9am to 9pm (09:00 to 21.00)
Sunday 9am to 6pm (09:00 to 18:00)
The store covers over 1,000 square metres and stocks over 7,500 different lines, many of them Tesco branded products, including selections from the most popular "Tesco Finest" ranges, alongside a carefully chosen mix of top branded products from the principal food brands most popular in the UK.
The ranges cover not only the basic essentials of life, but also allow residents here in Spain the luxury of being able to prepare a whole host of international dishes, with raw products and finished dishes on offer. Those who used to buy a ready-made Tesco Chicken Korma and rice with soft Peshwari Naan for a Friday night in with the telly can now do so once again, and those who prefer to cook their own (with a little help from Pataks) can avail themselves of a wide selection of curry pastes, sauces, rices, naans and breads, or if you fancy Mexican, Italian, Chinese or Thai the same options exist.
If oozing Tesco chocolate puddings and a roast chicken dinner are your fancy, then you won´t be disappointed, and if you dream of comforting British food, then you may be interested in the pork pies, smoked mackerel, proper British sausages, frozen turkeys, handcut ham, gammon, creams, flavoursome British cheeses, pies and the many other products to be found in the cold counters.
A vast selection of beverages awaits; carefully selected international wines, including some from Australia, a huge selection of bottled British beers, ales, ciders and stouts, British cordials and of course, plenty of tea and coffee with well-priced staple basics and brand-name offer packs.
If you have a sweet tooth, then bring a trailer ready to stock up on cakes, cake-making ingredients, sweets, chocolates, seasonal chocolate products, desserts and dessert ingredients. All the Tesco branded favourites are on sale as well as Mr Kiplings, Warburtons, Cadburys, Auntys ready-made sponge puddings, Betty Crocker, Pud in a Mug and lots more!
The store also offers household cleaning products, animal foods (including wild bird seed and fatballs for the birds), hygiene products, stationery, greeting cards, towels, wrapping paper, seasonal products, fresh fruit and veg and a wide range of frozen goodies.
