Retail Food — CFFC

Groceries are the target for this week’s Fun Foto Challenge – Though I’m going to stretch the point beyond the shelves 😅

Market’s are places to pick up some good food, sometimes at a good price though I think you probably pay a premium if you choose to shop in Borough Market…

…Ridley Road market is probably better value and you’ll be battling your way past locals rather than tourists 😅…

…And some markets are temporary – Cheeses on sale at a pre-Christmas market in Finchley…

Mini-Marts sell a mix of foods – Here’s one in Mile End…

…and another in Croydon…

While they supply fresh food, supermarkets tend to have a wide range of frozen foods – Iceland have made that their stock-in-trade…

Alongside the fresh and frozen foods many supermarkets sell loose prepared foods. Here a customer is buying Paella from one such counter in the Canet-en-Roussillon Hyper Casino…

Of course, all that food has to get to the shop somehow. At the same Hyper Casino, a Janval DAF makes a delivery…

…Most UK supermarkets have liveried fleets for this work – a Waitrose Scania waits outside their Mill Hill store for the delivery area doors to be opened…

Tesco, the UK’s largest retailer, have gone one step further having their own network of rail services connecting their hubs throughout the country. The motive power is supplied by Direct Rail Services – Here we see 66428 with a ‘Tescoliner’ passing through Willesden Junction…

…Blue containers for non-perishable and White for frozen 😅.
