Amazon to overtake Tesco as Britain s biggest retailer by 2025
The e-commerce powerhouse launched Amazon.co.uk in 1998, while Tesco started life in 1919

Amazon is poised to snatch Tesco’s crown as Britain s biggest retailer in 2025 as the online titan lays waste to swathes of Britain s high street.
The US e-commerce powerhouse is expected to push the FTSE 100 supermarket chain into second place as traditional retailers struggle to grow in a hyper-competitive market, according to a new study by data firm Edge by Ascential which confirms its dominance of British shopping.
