Asda marketing director of convenience Andy Perry said: "We identified London as a focus area for our growth in convenience, not only due to the size of the population, but also because of the higher propensity of convenience store usage amongst Londoners.
“In a densely populated area, with relatively low car ownership, we know that shopping locally is often preferable.
"Convenience is one of the fastest growing channels in the grocery market and developing our presence in this space is key to our long-term strategy to become the UK’s second largest supermarket retailer.”
