Tesco's UK and Ireland chief executive Charles Wilson is stepping down as he recovers from throat cancer, the company said on Tuesday.

Wilson has been undergoing daily radiotherapy in recent months and had “responded very well” to treatment, Tesco said in a statement, adding that "all the signs are that the treatment has been successful".

He will remain on the executive committee and will focus on the Booker wholesale business acquired earlier in 2018.
