About ASDA Express…
As the convenience arm of Asda, Asda Express is supporting Asda’s ambition to become the UK’s second largest grocery retailer by moving into the fast-growing £40bn convenience market. Asda Express will also help to bring Asda’s value pricing closer to millions of customers.
Following the acquisition of convenience sites from the Co-op Group and EG Group during the last two years, there are circa 470 stores which are in the process of being converted to Asda Express. Each store stocks up to 3,000 branded and own-label products to suit a broad range of customer needs including 'top up’ shops for essential items such as milk and bread, grabbing lunch on the go or cooking dinner from scratch.
The acquisition of the former EG Group UK convenience sites will also help accelerate Asda’s move into the £62bn foodservice market, adding more than 450 Greggs, Subway and Burger King outlets as franchise agreements as well as wholly owning healthy fast-food chain, LEON.
