Surely P&H knew this would happen had they factored this in to their business plans? Surely they had pictured and evaluated the possible effect of a big player with big volumes but also with great buying power and negotiating skills on their business model? Did they become over reliant on Tesco and have too many ‘eggs in a (non-profitable) basket’? Did P&H explore other potential product ranges and potential channels to the consumer?
