Goals / Remit
As one of the world’s largest retailers with 450,000 colleagues, we serve millions of customers a week in our stores and online.
Main EU files targeted
Tesco serves millions of customers every week so we are interested in a wide range of issues and policy areas that affect the way we serve our customers. Alongside our core purpose of 'serving shoppers a little better every day', we are committed to creating a business where colleagues can get on, whatever their background; to helping our customers make healthier choices and enjoy good quality, sustainable products, at affordable prices; and to helping make sure no food that could be eaten is wasted, anywhere in our supply chain.
Examples of specific legislative proposals and directives of interest include:
- Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 amending Regulation (EU) No 537/2014, Directive 2004/109/EC, Directive 2006/43/EC and Directive 2013/34/EU, as regards corporate sustainability reporting
- Regulation (EU) 2023/1115 on deforestation-free productsAddress

Meetings

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
