Kind of. And not very successfuly. They own a load of stores (about 170) on the West coast called Fresh and Easy, i think they specialise in fresh and healthy foods. So no, it's not really a Tesco at all.
Tesco is the worlds 3rd largest retailer by revenue behind WalMart 1st, Carrefour 2nd. But they are 2nd in profits.
Revenue £60.93 billion (2010/11)[1]
Operating income £3.81 billion (2010/11)[1]
Net income £2.67 billion (2010/11)[1]
So it's our version of Wal-Mart. Funnily enough the US is one of the only places its had difficulty getting market share, hence why they went for a different type of store. I guess you guys just love Wal-Mart Though i suppose its the same over here, Tesco is by far the largest retailer. Apprently every £1 in £4
is spent there but i'm not sure how much truth that holds
I've never seen a hard drive in a printer but I have seen them in plotters when I worked for corporate america. Every plot job sent was stored and could be re-plotted with the touch of a few buttons.
