ASDA will create 10,00 new jobs as it announces plans to open hundreds more convenience stores.
The supermarket giant is set to open 300 more Asda Express stores, creating thousands of jobs over the next four years.
It comes after Asda opened its latest Express store in Tottenham Hale, north London.
The stores will stock around 3,000 products, including a fresh food, as well as products from Asda’s premium Extra Special range and beers, wines and spirits.
Mohsin Issa, Asda’s co-owner said: “With more than three quarters of the UK population visiting a convenience store in the last 12 months, the potential for growth in this market is significant.
"Our ambition is to become the convenience destination of choice by providing shoppers great value and a comprehensive and convenient range of products and services under one roof.”
