Island 'still attractive to other retailers'
The Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture doesn't believe Tesco's significant Isle of Man presence will deter other supermarket chains from considering opening shop here.
The acquisition of all nine Shoprite stores means the UK giant has representation across all parts of the Island.
But the Minister - Clare Barber - is confident other retailers could still find the Island an attractive market:
More coastal overtopping expected as strong winds continue
New weather warning covers next two high tides
Full lighting capability restored at Isle of Man Airport
Issue affecting main runway now fixed
Snaefell Mountain Railway out of action after storm damage
But the MER will be operating as normal tomorrow
Council confident for Manor Pub's future
Question marks over beloved establishment's future
