Jason Tarry , chief executive of Tesco UK and Ireland, said: " We have learnt a huge amount from Jack 's and this has helped Tesco become more competitive, more efficient and strengthened our value proposition, including through The Launch of Aldi price match. "
" In turn, this has enabled us to consistently attract new customers to Tesco from our competitors over The Last two years and we know they increasingly recognise the value they can find at Tesco, " he added.
Chief executive Dave Lewis claimed that Jack 's - named after Tesco founder Sir Jack Cohen - would be cheaper than Aldi or Lidl.
Jack 's stores sold 2,600 products - Far fewer than the 35,000 carried by a Tesco Supermarket - with 1,800 branded " Jack 's".
In The First six months after The Launch , Tesco had planned between 10 and 15 Jack 's stores for new locations, next to existing Tesco stores, and a small number of converted Tesco stores but a total of 13 were built.
The seven sites which will be closed are in Hull, St Helen's, Walton, Castle Bromwich, Middlewich, Barnsley and Liverpool North.

Staff working on the meat, fish and hot deli counters listed for closure in 317 of Tesco's stores will also be offered different roles.
The Supermarket chain said The Changes will " ensure" Tesco remains " focused and competitive in a fast-changing market".
" With the learnings from Jack 's now applied, The Time is right to Focus On ensuring we continue to deliver The Best possible value for customers in our core business, " Mr Tarry added.
