The retailer is understood to be planning a move into the fragmented and fast-growing Russian market via the joint venture route rather than using its considerable financial muscle for acquisitions.

Tesco's announcement that it is cutting its prices by a total of GBP80 million represents the start of the latest round in the supermarket price wars. It will also put price higher on the grocers' PR agenda following 2006 when deflation across all grocers eased for the first time since 2003.
