It is the second-largest grocery retailer in the North of England, Scotland and Wales, and has the second-largest online grocery platform in the UK. The company operates a significant store estate across over 600 sites in the UK, with its core focus being the operation of edge-of-town superstores with an average surface area of 4,200 square metres.

Transaction Following the successful partnership at EG Group, TDR Capital has acquired ASDA jointly with the Issa Brothers (co-shareholders in EG Group). Whilst EG Group and ASDA will be managed separately, we believe that there are a number of value creation opportunities unlocked by co-owning both assets. ASDA was acquired from US retailer Walmart, who remain invested in the business.
