The supermarket today opened its second Asda Express convenience store and confirmed plans to open 300 more by the end of 2026
Asda has announced an ambition to create 10,000 new convenience store jobs over the next four years as it accelerates the rollout of its new Asda Express store concept.“Each Asda Express store is designed to cater for a broad range of customer needs, including ‘top up’ shops for essential items such as milk and bread, grabbing a spot of lunch on the go, or buying the fresh ingredients to cook dinner from scratch.
The stores will stock around 3,000 products, including a comprehensive range of fresh, ambient and chilled groceries, as well as products from Asda’s premium Extra Special range and a broad selection of beers, wines and spirits.Mohsin Issa, Asda’s co-owner said: “A key part of our growth strategy is to provide customers with more opportunities to shop at Asda closer to where they live or work.
The target of 300 Asda Express stores by the end of 2026 does not include the convenience stores Asda is acquiring from the Co-op. This deal is currently going through the CMA’s normal competition review process, Asda said in a statement.
