SUPERMARKET CHAIN Tesco is preparing to launch a range of own-brand software to flog in its shops.

The software is developed by Crawley-based Formjet PLC, which includes the anti-virus developer Panda Software and Ability Software, maker of the Ability office suite.

According to the Guardian, the initial Tesco range will include an office suite, two anti-virus products, a personal finance tool, a CD/DVD burner, and a photo editing program. All the titles are expected to sell for under £20.

The supermarket is also planning to offer support through its new website, TescoSoftware.com.

The Tesco software range will be available in around 100 Tesco shops later this month. The firm launched its first PC hardware range earlier this year. µ
