I wonder, is Tesco Malaysia want to close down their Malaysia operation?

I went to Tesco Setia Alam, Shah Alam just now, I saw many area that lack of product assortment especially at their milk section. It's empty and left unpopular products that no one want to buy.

I go other sections also same, lack of product assortment.

They complained in The Star newspaper that their sales are going down the drain, seeing the store condition, it's not a suprise their sales are low.

How about Tesco in your area guys? Is it okay or not?

Tesco at my area lagi kesian

product sorting and arrangement macam nobody care

dah la customer attitude macam sampah. simply take any stuff anf just leave them anywhere they like

tak ada basic manners especially frozen stuffs handling - dah bukak peti aiskrim simply just let them opened

bangang betul. dari top management sampai end consumer

Tesco management is getting worst i guess. I can see the differences.

Last time there's a big liquor section, they close the section and put the liquor item at some small area.

Lack of cashier. So many counter closed. I was like wtf is this.

Tesco egate penang, 1/3 already give to some hardware shop.

and I heard they were indeed wanna cease their operation in Malaysia.

edit: correction - LTAT never take over tesco...wrong info i read somewhere. thanks to Faidzal for pointing it out

They need to renovate back their store.
Try follow Aeon as example.

See Aeon Midvalley and Shah Alam. Looks modern and fresh. It attracts customer to buy more.

If not mistaken, tesco setia alam, their use outsource assortment, their only stock up at night time.
But yes tesco is sucks!
I rather go mydin and Aeon

I think Mydin is better than Tesco, I went Mydin USJ, not bad. At least there's alot product available at there.

tesco bukit tinggi and skyn 13 still okay for me..good condition...always got promo and got promo stall with cute girl..haha..sometimes got until 5 stall..free food..nice also..

tesco ampang here stock still ok, but the only problem is the increase in prices. absolute ridiculous. once, a soy milk was sold RM2.20 without promo. now suddenly increase to RM2.70. gila. soy milk wei. better go 99mart only RM1.90.

Too many Tescos, not surprised if some close down.

Tesco used to be the best hypermkt around.

Now definately has changed for the worse

Now even Giant feels better than Tesco!

Good, selling barang mahal than aeon and 99speedmart.

Tesco is expanding its Asian presence with the opening of new stores in Thailand and Malaysia.

The supermarket is set to open 100 more Tesco Lotus stores in Thailand by the end of this year - including hypermarket, supermarket and convenience formats - to take its total estate to 2,000.

It will also renovate 18 stores in its existing estate, which covers 73 Thai provinces.

Tesco Lotus online sales grew at a triple-digit rate over the past year, it revealed this week, but still remained a small percentage of total sales.

“We see an improvement in consumer spending power and feel confident the Thai economy will rise this year,” said John Christie, CEO of Tesco Lotus.

Tesco is also due to open six new stores in Malaysia this year, four of which will be a smaller format.

The supermarket had initially concentrated on opening hypermarkets in Malaysia but is currently downsizing stores in its 56-strong estate to reduce the number by more than 60,000 sq m.

Online accounts for just 2% of Tesco’s sales in Malaysia, having launched in the country two years ago.

“Consumers still want the physical aspect of grocery shopping. They want to touch, see, smell and pick groceries by hand,” said Paul Ritchie, CEO of Tesco Malaysia.

Tesco entered the Thai market in 1994 and the Malaysian market in 2002.

Monday loorrr. They usually restock on thursday coz sales usually start on friday - sunday

It's time for Jusco to buy over Tesco Malaysia?
Maybe call Beon....

My area ok je. I went yesterday.

I think regular clear stock every mid year (frozen stock / chill).
U can get additional discount fr selected item

got financial problem? paging China, China come in....

tesco @ scott garden sudah tapao

Wrong day la. They normally restock on Thursday. Tesco setia alam i go every thursday/friday to restock my groceries. Ok jer. U want variety of items go to urban fresh at setia city mall. But if really bungkus also nvm. Still got speedmart/giant/pasar besar klang nearby.

Tesco for low income. Been visiting Bens Grocer for the last one year! Always a great shopping experience there

aku dah 6 bulan dtg tesco yang sama ...jibai xde beger ramli plus frozen food always out of stock i wonder ... no ordering or what coz i go nsk got ramli beger etc ... ..btw tesco i go is selayang ... and the biggest failure is when u want to pay only 4 counter open ==' is this a joke top building got like 10 cashier but only open one ==' downside one the busy one got like 15 cashier only operate 4-5 cashier wtf ? ...

iinm in shah alam got 2 tesco very near each other. one big tesco beside Aeon and another is smaller tesco further back. The smaller tesco got more crowd and items compared to the big tesco.

but why? i really like tesco

Still good at Tesco Kota Bharu

For Tesco I prefer going to Tesco Menjalara eventhough I live in BSD. They have self checkout.
Most of the time I go to Aeon anyway because my company is a tenant there

Inb4 Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 5DX players enjoice

BTW, haven't went to any shopping mall in months. But hey, if you don't have anything good to offer, then it's a go fuck yourself situation

it was in the news

- they are downsizing their square foot

- they are renovating

- they are opening new locations

- trying to get more people to shop online


the emptying of shelves you are seeing is probably due to make space for rearranging before renovation cam start.

Tesco Milo is gooding, i mean chocolate malt Tesco brand.

Tesco Mutiara Damansara here. Seems as usual. Haven't visited this week though.

They're usually the cheapest around but I wouldn't buy anything other than packaged goods. Fresh stuff quality are pretty terrible.

Scott garden tesco closed

dying brand
it's losing the lower end to mydin, matahari etc
it's losing the premium end to aeon, jaya grocer etc

Sudah lompat. Now i only go aeon.

what to do

too many sampah ppl in out country

better they just close it down
dont really like tesco

thanks to new management ...... previous team is a lot better

Longtime never step into the a Hypermarket but Tesco promotion on Lazada is good.

When its come to supermarket,
No 1 is Mydin
2nd is Giant

Other is so-so.

Tesco Mutiara Damansara how?

Jaya grocer > ALL

I believed it's the attitude of the workers and also management.

For those who have seen our neighbour country Tesco, just compare Tesco Malaysia and Tesco thailand.

eh bila LTAT beli tesco malaysia?

AFAIK tesco malaysia is JV between tesco UK (tesco plc) and sime darby (the 30% bumi shareholder nominee).

what i know of LTAT and tesco are that they are doing JV to open tesco minimarts inside certain army camps or something, calling it tesco pernama...

eh ye ke. alamak i might had misread it somewhere. thanks for correction

always tesco ara damansara
tesco sek13 gile kotor

Deyy. If they restock on Thursday and Friday, of course on Saturday is still available.

I also went on Saturday morning okay, there are many stocks are not available.

I used to work in Hypermarket, on Saturday and Sunday are the most important days that they need to stock up the stocks because high volume of customer.

Tesco is selling their shares to Mydhin

current trend nobody wanna go huge ass hypermarket anymore
spending 2-3 hrs pushing carts and queuing to pay
nobody got time for that
that's why KK mart, 99 speedmart, small mydin thriving
would rather park in front of shop, get in get out asap

Tescogot mohon pencerahan

lulugot enjoice?

Last time tesco nearlee kills Giant and Mydin. Luckily this both know on how to survive. When Tesco Seremban Jaya opened, nobody goes to Giant Senawang for atleast 2 years plus. I can see the carkpark is empty there at Giant..

Now, nobody goes to tesco and people are going back to Giant. They even leased a part of their mall to Mr DIY..

I dun understand why suddenly tesco become bangang as hell...

no money la

Tesco Extra in my area is normal. The stuff and product still same like always and many people also shopping there like usual.

jangan suka sangat...I had edited it out. remove my reply please

they are not supplying what the people wants
i go there all the time, low fat milk pulak konon?

tesco selayang as well, so many empty shelves, & they dont even mind to fix the broken escalator.

Soon u see only cobaidin

come aeon

Nsk in kuchai lama the best
Well stocked

now i prefer Aeon more liao..
tesco quality sux nowadays

How come tesco uk much better. I wonder who is handling our msia tesco? Locals or uk ?

Good choice sir

kotor and messy (Tesco ) , not very comfortable to shop sometimes

tesco in johor seems to be doing fine.

renovation need money so now they charge parking tickets which had been free since the beginning

the 1st Tesco in Malaysia Pusat bandar Puchong half is rented out for shop

thanks to Singaporean

aeon big or juscogot

tesco online

Tesco Seremban 2 & Seremban Jaya doing ok. I guess the performance of the store management team is a factor.

Tesco Kajang also shrink in size...some portion leased to Mr DIY.

Habislo....less one hypermarket in future to buy groceries

darussalam presint 9 much better

i think its local?

tesco at non-KL area always liddat

tutup je lah... kan kedai runcit ada

tesco ampang is shit. sometimes at some section, can smell rat pee and their egg section not so fresh. they have more than 20 counter but only open less than 5 sometimes zzz

Tesco cut cost till screw up the whole company!
Many of their staff lari till left deadwood, that's why now as the customer you are feeling the screw up!

Tesco taman midah there still ok kot

Tesco ara damansara macam nak mati soon.....weekday n weekend also not much people.

Tesco Damansara(near ikea) n shah alam(seksyen 13) so far I see still OK.

Tesco dulu laku sbb murah

Skrang dah mahal, i mean like real mahal
Some item just insane ridiculous price.

But be it tesco, aeon, mydin or giant, once i step into 99speedmart i will sakit hati. Coz 99 always lowest price. If already buy milk at giant, then singgah 99 to buy other stuff, see milk price sakit hati, n feel stupid

Don't close le TESCO... I survive by their reduce to clear items.. I remember one time Nutella reduce to clear 20 sen I was the lucky first to see. I bought more than 24 Nutella that day terus gain few kgs after that

Mutiara seems to be ok.

Tesco Ampang and Cheras damn crowded...

Dunno.. where would you get chocolate chips or flour at 99 speedmart? Do they even have rice? or chicken or beef?

yeah...so why they wanna close down again?

i love Tesco diapers. cheaper than mainstream brands

Tesco S2 is as good as closing always few people around but the stock seems ok

My place one renovating to look better. Means sales shoukd be good

TEsco scott garden also close shop for months now.

i like tesco, because they always label the price tag wrongly and sell things cheaper than usual.

lulu more gooding

Tesco kulim. fresh vege hard to come by...
i see them rearranged the vege stand... others still ok. no change.

yea, with arabic snack ftw.
but parking expensive

Haih, only selected items la, usually beef or chicken i buy from pasar

Stuff like milo packet, condensed milk, tea, diapers, baby milk, they always the lowest. Ohh they do sell rice & flour.

Sell items that can be easily bought at smaller marts at a higher price.

Badly managed.

Theft at more ghetto areas and that theft affects product quality.

Fruits and vegetables quality macam haram.

They might close down, but at the moment they are doing what every surviving hypermart is doing around the world, which is reducing their stock variety and focus on core items.

THIS.

The vege and fruits all sampah, only to sell to Bangla.

See Village Grocer booming all over, price mahal a bit, but got quality.

sungai petani and alor setar alone got 2 tescos each. separated not even 10km. not counting jitra too. boy i wonder how they gonna survive. now mydin is on the rise. i prefer mydin. regret not buying house at the taman at alor mengkudu. if not, i can go to mydin only wearing my singlet and towel.

Sungai Petani now got mydin?
When it is open?

Last time I studied at Kedah during 2010-2012.

As far that I know, since I left SP, banyak development around that area.
