Tesco has a sourcing base in India. 90 per cent of India sourcing is accounted for by apparel. Currently South Indian apparel hubs Bangalore and Tirupur account for a large proportion of the sourcing.

The subsidiary - Tesco Hindustan Service Centre currently employees 630 people. Tesco decided to have a wholly owned subsidiary rather than outsource to local Indian companies because it wanted Tesco employees to be handling critical business processes and software development and support.
