SUPERMARKET giant Sainsbury's was challenged to prove the need to extend its delivery hours by the inspector leading a public inquiry into its appeal against a ruling by East Hampshire District Council, which started this week.
Current deliveries start at 7am and continue until 9.20pm and involve a total of 12 deliveries per day made by six large, articulated lorries and a number of smaller vans.
