Tesco will open around 70 new Express stores by March 2027, including five former Amazon Fresh sites in London, expanding its network beyond 2,000 locations across the UK.
- In its 2026 store-growth plans, Tesco said it will add 70 Tesco Express stores, including five former Amazon Fresh sites, with openings by March next year.

- The new sites include five London locations—Kensington High Street, Hounslow, Moorgate, Aldgate East and Wembley—that will reopen before summer, plus new stores in Bickington, Devon, Pontrhydyrun, Torfaen, Strabane, County Tyrone and Wallyford, East Lothian.
- Alongside convenience growth, Tesco says its investment supports jobs and local economies, with plans to open two large stores in Pitlochry and Heartlands this year, according to Nick Johnson.
- By March 2027, Tesco says it will open more than 70 additional Express stores, reflecting sectorwide growth as Co-operative supermarket plans 18 new sites in Q1 2026.
