CITY VIEWS: WOULD YOU INVEST IN OCADO?
JOHN BUTTERWORTH | INSURANCE CONSULTANT
“I don’t think there is a problem with the firm floating. The long-term Waitrose deal is a definite plus point. It’s something different for investors: rewards come from taking a punt.”
EMMA ATKINS | KENNEDY LAW
“Online shopping is so convenient and the timing could be right for them. I would consider buying shares in a company like that. They need to expand their customer base and this is a way to do it.”
JOHN LING | LINGS SOLICITORS
“I commute to work so it’s much more convenient for me to pop into a supermarket. I know Waitrose has said it will support them, but long-term deals are still quite risky. Ocado has a good reputation though.”
