Associated British Foods-owned bread brand Kingsmill is set to return to Tesco shelves, after the UK's largest retailer delisted the brand in March.

"Allied Bakeries is pleased to confirm that Tesco will reintroduce Kingsmill 50/50 and No Crusts to the majority of their stores," a spokesperson for Allied Bakeries, ABF's bread unit, told just-food.

Tesco removed Kingsmill from all its stores and online in March as part of its drive to reduce the number of lower volume SKUs it carries.
