已有80年历史的Tesco(特易购,又译泰斯科)是英国最大的零售商,其在英国的支配地位比沃尔玛在美国更甚,在欧洲排名第一,现在它正将目光瞄准整个世界。设想有这样一个年收入达数十亿美元的全球零售商,它拥有默默无闻的管理和毫不起眼的总部,但在世界市场上影响巨大。供应商们一方面渴望自己的商品能够在它的货架上拥有一席之地,另一方面却惧怕其对商品价格和质量的苛求。不断打折的商品吸引着大批顾客蜂拥而至,人们却又痛恨它挤垮了本地商家,使他们可选择的商家减少。但是无论市场上有着怎样的抱怨,它的发展看起来都是不可动摇的,不管是在英国国内还是国外。
The 80-year-old Tesco, the UK’s largest retailer, is even more dominant in the United Kingdom than Wal-Mart in the United States and number one in Europe and is now aiming for The whole world. Imagine a global retailer with billions of dollars in annual revenue that has unobtrusive management and an obscure headquarters but that has a huge impact on world markets. On the one hand, suppliers are hungry for their goods to have a place on its shelves, while on the other, they are afraid of their demanding prices and quality of goods. Constantly discounted merchandise attracts a large number of customers flocked to, but people hate it crowded local businesses, so that they can choose to reduce the number of businesses. But no matter what kind of complaints the market has, its development seems unshakable, both in the UK and abroad.
