\"Tesco

A new Tesco is due to open on Cathays Terrace early next year, raising the concern of a local shopkeeper who currently runs the only convenience store on the street.<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Due to open its new branch on 11 February 2014, the UK\u2019s leading food retailer will begin trading across the road from Kanta Pindoria\u2019s small corner shop, which operates under the franchise Premier<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Premier,

Pindoria\u2019s business has grown popular amongst the community in Cathays, but the shopkeeper is despondent about the opening of the new Tesco. He fears that the supermarket will cause a catastrophic decline in his profits.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are just going to go straight there, even if we\u2019re cheaper,\u201d he protests. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter how low we price our stock if there\u2019s a Tesco just across the street.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Stokes

Public lobbying in Bristol previously inspired a mass boycott of Tesco<\/a>, although a similar movement has yet to arrive in Cardiff.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
