Higher petrol and diesel costs helped lift takings at the supermarket group despite slower growth in other parts of the business. During the three months to May, Tesco reported a sharp increase in fuel income while overall sales rose by a smaller amount than before. Fuel turnover reached £1.7bn, and total sales growth was one per cent, taking sales to £16.8bn.
