Lyme Bay Holiday Village is now a Tesco Supermarket

Tesco officially opened their Seaton supermarket on 21st November 2011 following a controversial build period.  It seems that is it still not plain sailing as many consider the site, formerly the venue of many keyboard music festivals, to be on a flood plain.

Tescopoly, an organisation looking into the dominance of supermarkets (Tesco in particular), is looking closely at the situation.  The Tescopoly website claim that Tesco now controls over 30% of the grocery market in the UK. In 2010, the supermarket chain announced profits of £3.4bn. Growing evidence indicates that Tesco's success is partly based on trading practices that are having serious consequences for suppliers, farmers and workers worldwide, local shops and the environment.
