Asda was formed in 1965 and has established itself as one of the UK’s biggest supermarket players. The grocer is renowned for its focus on everyday low prices and an extensive product assortment, operating mainly from large out-of-town supermarkets and hypermarkets across the UK. Retail Week provides news, analysis, features and opinion about Asda and the grocery sector.
Amazon and Asda have teamed up to launch parcel pickup and label-free, box-free returns at over 700 of the supermarket’s stores across the UK.
From “disappointing” to “clobbered”, the retail backlash to last month’s Budget has only grown with every passing day. The next question is what the sector will do in response?
Take-home sales at the grocers hit their highest point of the year, even as inflation began to inch up in the run-up to the all-important Christmas period.
Asda has today announced the interim appointment of Barney Burgess as vice president of online, as it waits for David Devany to join the business later in 2025.
Asda is considering more job cuts after making nearly 500 staff redundant last week.
