Where do you fit in? Tesco.com

We don't like to bang on about facts and figures all the time, but with Tesco.com we think it's justified.

Why? Now 10 years old, is the most successful on-line grocery shopping service in the world. And it's getting more successful with every order - some 200,000 per week at the current rate.

All this adds up to strong sales growth, up 31%, to reach almost £1 billion. Profit increased by 54% to £56 million - which is 10% of Tesco's overall profits.

And we've now got an incredible 750,000 active customers.

From Southport to Seoul

Here's another thing people find surprising: Tesco.com operates on three continents, including the USA (in a joint venture with Safeway Inc.)

We've launched the service into the Republic of Ireland, and in a short time we've already managed to cover two thirds of the population.

Oh, and in South Korea, our E-home service gives customers a choice of over 15,000 products.

The dot.com boom

Tesco.com is a fascinating place to work - it's got all the verve and thrill of a start-up, but with the security and resources of a thriving blue chip company.

You might also be surprised to hear we're completely self-sufficient. That means we have our own teams in Marketing, Commercial (Food and Non-Food), Finance, IT, Business Development, Supply Chain, Media Publishing, Media Sales, Personnel, Direct Media (Photographic & Design studio) and Retail Development and Operations.
