Asda faces lorry driver strikes over Christmas
Driver strikes at grocery giant Asda are threatening to cause food shortages during the peak Christmas trading period.
Around 80 lorry drivers at Asda’s Rochdale, Greater Manchester, operations hub are reportedly gearing up to take industrial action over the Christmas period as a result of a pay dispute, according to The Telegraph.
The newspaper said Asda is planning to use its own drivers during strikes to “limit disruption”, rather than drivers employed by supply chain firm Wincanton.
