Tesco has confirmed plans to make major changes to some of its largest stores. The supermarket giant has signalled it will begin to move away from manned checkouts and towards more self-service facilities.
Company bosses say the decision was made due to a lack of customer demand, Birmingham Live reports. Larger self-checkout areas were trialled in some shops, which were suitable for trolleys and three times longer than standard sizes.
This is now set to be rolled to other stores at a time when customers are calling for self service checkouts stop being added. One petition has even attracted more than 218,000 signatures.
