Nearly ten years after Tesco launched its Finest range most of the big retailers have their own premium brands.

So we now have Sainsbury's Taste the Difference, Asda鈥檚 Extra Special and Morrisons' The Best. The Food Programme explores what lies behind these labels. Simon Parkes talks to Edward Garner from TNS Worldpanel, a market research company, about the rise in sales of supermarket premium brands.

Simon also visits one of the major suppliers of supermarket premium range cakes, The Finsbury Food Group and speaks to Chief Executive, Dave Brooks about what goes into a premium product.

Simon is then joined by retail analyst and Food & Farming Award judge, Robert Clarke and food journalist and author of Bad Food Britain, Joanna Blythman to discuss the so called trend of 鈥減remiumisation鈥�.
