The Leeds-based supermarket chain has announced plans to open its first two convenience stores before Christmas.
In a statement, Asda said: “Asda plans to launch a further 30 sites, creating about 500 new roles, next year, as part of a ‘test and learn’ approach to developing its convenience model, a key element of Asda’s strategic vision to become the UK’s second largest supermarket.
“Both Asda Express stores are purpose built and situated in residential areas giving customers the opportunity to shop in convenient neighbourhood locations.” The statement added: “Customers will also enjoy a range of hot and cold ‘food for now’ options from Asda and partner brands including Leon, plus ‘food for later’ choices such as ready meals and a selection of £10 meal deals for two people. Both stores will also offer ‘toyou’ parcel collection and return services and shortly after opening will offer a rapid delivery service through Uber Eats.”
“The stores have been designed to cater for a broad range of customer needs, whether that’s popping in for a pint of milk, grabbing a spot of lunch on the go, or buying the fresh ingredients to cook dinner from scratch."We’re confident customers will find everything they need in these stores and enjoy the convenience of having a new type of Asda store on their doorstep.
