I was just wondering if anybody picked up on the news yesterday with regards to the announcement by Asda that they will be expanding their presence in the UK by opening circa 300+ new stores (largely in the South of England)?
Apparently this is at odd with the current strategy of the rest of the 'Big 4' (Tesco, Sainsbury, Morrison) but could I suspect be just the sort of thing we need to focus the minds of Sainsbury and expedite their plans with RH and therefore us at FF. The supermarkets tend to follow each other like sheep as they fear above all else a loss of market share to each other (and more recently to Lidl and Aldi).
