Brand sentiment analysis

What does the world think of Tesco?

6.1/10

from the full report

Consumer sentiment toward Tesco in Ireland is mixed-leaning-positive, and the split is unusually clean: what Irish shoppers do is more positive than what they say. Worldpanel by Numerator data reported by ShelfLife and KamCity puts Tesco at 23.5% of the Irish grocery market in the four weeks to 12 July 2026 with 6.4% year-on-year value growth, and attributes an extra €21.3 million to returning plus new shoppers. Full-year Irish sales reached about €3.7 billion (Irish Times, April 2026), with Tesco Finest up 11.8%. The Tesco Ireland Android app sits at 4.38/5 from roughly 10,000 ratings. Media

Value density and own-label breadth

The most durable praise is that a Tesco basket stretches further than shoppers expect, particularly across own-label tiers and the Finest premium range. Irish results support the perception rather than contradict it: Finest sales rose 11.8% year-on-year and Irish food sales rose 5.1%. Irish creator
