Tesco puts new Lily's product amongst tins of curry
|
An eagle-eyed pet owner spotted tins of Lily's dog food – the new range from Lily's Kitchen – on the shelves of a Tesco store containing tins of curry.
The Lily's range is being sold exclusively in Tesco outlets throughout the country and went on sale at the beginning of August.
Pet Trade Xtra contacted Lily's Kitchen and received this reply: “While Lily’s use human grade ingredients in their range of food perhaps a Tesco employee has taken this a step too far!
"This picture was taken by a Lily’s Kitchen Facebook fan last week. While they were pleased to have found it in store they wanted to let us know that it was in rather a funny place.
"We were surprised to see that it had been placed on the this shelf and have clarified with Tesco that this was a one-off mistake.
"While it’s lovely to know that people clearly think Lily’s is good enough quality to be placed next to human canned food it firmly belongs in the pet food shelves and that’s where Tesco shoppers should expect to find it.”
On Twitter, @Tesco tweeted: "Sorry to see that. Which store was this at please? It's delicious but we need to get it back for the dogs!"
