Tesco CEO Philip Clarke recently recommitted to the Fresh & Easy business while saying that it will probably take until early 2014 to break even, a year longer than recently had been projected. However, he also probably believes that to make this happen, he needs more executive firepower in place, hence the desire to move the pieces around the board and try something new.
