They simply can't just sell groceries can they?

Yep Brian.
It seems to be coming at us from all sides.
As discussed after my post about
plumbers installing etc.
I suspect these will be the Co2 variety?
Never the less more equipment means more work for some.
So someone will benefit, lets hope it is some of the guys on the forum?
Cheers Steve.

I also saw the article. Interesting how sales methods are changing.

I'd say that the trade will have to learn how to manage these systems in terms of outside-warranty repairs. I can't imagine that the original installers will be able to maintain all systems sold.

In the end, free market principles should govern how well this type of product sells through box-shifter outlets. If customers have poor after-sales service, then the concept will fail.

Hi if you go to sainsburys corporate web sit the full article is there, the ACR statement is out of context, he states there will be 200 new jobs created, not employed by sainsbury, by re training for CO2
