140 tonnes of extra raspberries taken by Tesco to prevent food waste Jordan Blandford

Buyer: Berries

31 Aug 2017

Tesco works with its British suppliers to offer 150g punnets of raspberries for £1, saving food waste and offering customers fresh fruit at an affordable price.

This summer’s unpredictable weather has led to our suppliers having excess crop. This week our raspberry supplier Berry World have picked a huge amount. We have worked with them to take more and offer the bonus berries to customers at a discounted price.

Over the next two weeks we will take an additional 140 tonnes of raspberries. They will appear in stores as 150g punnets for just £1.

Supporting our British growers

We want to support our British farmers and stop any raspberries from going to waste. British raspberry farmers are able to make more profit from their bumper yield and customers benefit from low cost fresh fruit.

Helping our suppliers

No time for waste
