More than 350 branches will open across the UK in the form of Asda Express convenience stores.<\/p>\n
Customers in England will benefit from the majority of the supermarkets, which will be located at petrol stations.<\/p>\n
A staggering 310 are set to open across England while Asda fans in Scotland will see 24 new Express shops appear.<\/p>\n
Wales will welcome 22 new shops, bringing the total to 356.<\/p>\n
It follows the retailer\u2019s acquisition of EG Group\u2019s UK and Ireland business which it acquired in May for \u00a32.27billion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Asda Express locations coming to the UK:<\/strong><\/p>\n The deal builds on Asda\u2019s acquisition of 119 convenience sites with attached petrol stations from the Co-op Group last year, as reported by Wales Online.<\/p>\n Asda has already converted 39 of these to Asda Express with the rest expected to be complete the rest by the end of March 2024.<\/p>\n The retailer is now the owner of a total of 478 convenience stores and has plans to roll out further standalone Express stores in locations such as Romford Station and Manchester Oxford Road.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n In total, 300 stand-alone convenience sites will be established by the end of 2026.<\/p>\n Stores will sell essentials such as bread, milk, ready made food including lunch deals and staple cooking ingredients.<\/p>\n The small branches will rival the likes of Tesco Express and Sainsbury\u2019s Local which exist in similar locations near train stations.<\/p>\n In London, for example, residents in Acton will see a new Asda Express store appear next to the Acton Main Line railway station.<\/p>\n The shiny new branch will trade just metres away from a Co-op, Sainsbury\u2019s Local, and Spar petrol station.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[ad_2]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [ad_1] More than 350 branches will open across the UK in the form of Asda Express convenience stores.
