This brand was phased out and replaced with the Sainsbury's Local brand by March 2008. Shortly before the Sainsbury's acquisition the chain was voted Britain's best independent retail chain.[2] Sainsbury's acquisition of Jacksons Stores was part of the wider controversy of the major supermarkets move into the convenience sector. The deal was not subject to a competition inquiry due to the precedent of Tesco's T&S Stores acquisition; The Office of Fair Trading took the view that the convenience sector was distinct from the supermarket sector.[3] See also
