Under Embargo Until 00 Supermarkets: top of the homebuyer shopping list? Homes in close proximity to supermarkets command an average price premium of £15,000 New research from Lloyds Bank has found that the average house price in areas which offer residents easy reach of a local supermarket is around 7% (£15,331) higher when compared to other areas within the same town which don’t. By comparing average prices in postal districts (e.g. NE20), which have a national supermarket, to the wider post town (e.g. Newcastle), it has been possible to identify the average house price premium or discount associated with the proximity to some of the UK’s largest grocery retailers. Properties in areas with a Waitrose, Sainsbury’s or Tesco are most likely to command a higher house price premium when compared to the wider town average. The average price premium for properties within easy reach of a Waitrose is 12% (£38,831) higher than the wider town, Sainsbury’s 10% (£24,507) and Tesco 8% (£17,124). [Table 1] The analysis also looked at locations with the highest area to town house price premium. Chiswick in Hounslow, Ponteland in Newcastle and Golders Green in Barnet command the greatest average property prices when compared with the surrounding town average. [Table 2] The average house price in Chiswick, which offers residents a Waitrose, Sainsbury's and Marks and Spencer, is £918,287. This is a premium of 117% or £495,601 when compared to the average price for the borough of Hounslow. Ponteland, which has a Waitrose, Sainsbury's and Co-Op, and Golders Green, which has a Sainsbury's and Marks and Spencer, have premiums of 110% (£195,623) and 88% (£456,829) respectively. Andy Hulme, Lloyds Bank mortgages director, commented: “It’s easy to assume the effect of different factors on the value of a property but this research enables us to clearly see that there is a significant association between the convenience of a local supermarket and house prices. “With homes in areas close to national supermarkets commanding an average of over £15,000 more than those in the surrounding areas, having a grocery shop within easy reach appears to be high on the list for homebuyers looking for good access to local amenities.” Regionally the greatest house price premium that can be aligned to a supermarket presence is in the West Midlands, where areas with a local Waitrose command an average 37% (£66,130) more than the surrounding town. This is followed by the same supermarket in the North West 33% (£63,921) and London 14% (£76,188).

  • May 4Th 2020 Written Evidence Submitted by Money Mail (COV0131)
    May 4th 2020 Written evidence submitted by Money Mail (COV0131) Dear Sir/Madam, The Daily Mail’s personal finance section Money Mail has compiled a dossier of readers’ letters that we hope you will find useful to your inquiry into food supply in the Covid-19 pandemic. We first published a story on Wednesday, April 22, detailing the problems some classed as ‘clinically vulnerable’ were having securing a supermarket delivery in the lockdown. We then received hundreds of emails and letters from readers sharing their experiences. This was one of the biggest responses we have received to a story in recent memory. Money Mail then ran another story the following Wednesday (April 29th) sharing more reader stories and calling on supermarkets to do more to help. In this story, we told readers that their letters (with personal details removed) would be sent to the Efra inquiry. The pages that follow, we have included more 300 of the letters and emails we received in response to our coverage of the issue. Regards, The Money Mail team, Daily Mail 1. My husband and I are having to shield but unfortunately like most other people in similar circumstances, do not meet the very limited criteria set out by the Government for assistance with Food Deliveries.

  • Press Release 25 July 2016
    MONDAY 25 JULY 2016 NOT FOR BROADCAST OR PUBLICATION BEFORE 00.01 HRS MONDAY JULY 25TH 2016 Living near a supermarket can bag you a £22,000 bonus on your home • The ‘Waitrose Effect’ can boost the price of a home even further, by an average of almost £40,000 • Discount retailers also help to drive house prices in some areas New research from Lloyds Bank has found that living close to a well-known supermarket chain can add an average of £22,000 to the value of your home. The report also reveals that premium brands can add even more to nearby house prices, with properties close to a Waitrose store receiving an average boost of £38,666 (or 10%) higher than the wider town in which they are located (£425,428 v. £386,763) – the highest amongst the national supermarkets. In addition to Waitrose, properties near a Sainsbury’s, Marks and Spencer, Tesco or Iceland also command the highest house price premiums - Sainsbury’s (£27,939), Marks and Spencer (£27,182), Tesco (£22,072) and Iceland (£20,034). (See Table 1) The lowest house price premiums are in areas with an Asda (£5,026), Lidl (£3,926) or Aldi store (£1,333). Mike Songer, Lloyds Bank Mortgage Director, commented: "Our findings back-up the so-called ‘Waitrose effect’. There is definitely a correlation between the price of your home and whether it’s close to a major supermarket or not. Our figures show that the amount added to the value of your home can be even greater if located next to a brand which is perceived as upmarket.

  • Somerfield Plc / Wm Morrison Supermarkets Plc Inquiry
    APPENDIX B Key aspects of the economic analysis for Stage 1 of the local competitive effects methodology Part 1 Introduction 1. Stage 1 of our local competitive effects methodology involves identifying a local market in which to apply a screening rule. The local market has a product-market dimension (ie which fascias and sizes of store compete with each other) and a geographic-market dimension (ie how wide their customer catchment areas are). This appendix summarizes four key aspects of the economic analysis undertaken at Stage 1. 2. Our findings are that: • the product market used at Stage 1: — should not include the LADs, ie Aldi, Lidl and Netto, nor Marks & Spencer; but — should include all stores of 280 sq metres (3,000 sq feet) or more (including one-stop shops); • the geographic market used at Stage 1 should use 5-minute drive-time isochrones for urban stores and 10-minute drive-time isochrones for rural stores; and • in circumstances where an acquired store’s local market share was higher pre- merger (ie where it appears to have faced less competition) its margins also tended to be higher, especially in rural areas. A corollary of this result is that the local markets for which acquired stores’ market shares have been calculated by Somerfield may be relevant markets, especially in rural areas. 3. The remainder of this appendix is organized as follows. Part 2 reports the results of an analysis of the impact on Somerfield and Kwik Save sales of the opening of various competitor fascias, which helps to define the product market (ie which competing fascias constrain Somerfield and Kwik Save).
