Tesco launched a new flagship store next to the City’s iconic Walkie Talkie building yesterday, in a bid to capitalise on an expected 8,000 thousand-strong workforce set to take over the building.

The store, which houses a new Tesco-backed brand Fred’s Food Construction, is based on a New York style deli counter.
