Asda is a British supermarket chain with stores across the United Kingdom. It is headquartered in Leeds, West Yorkshire. The company was founded in 1949 and has been a subsidiary of the American retailer Walmart since 1999.
Walmart is the world’s largest retailer, with over 11,000 stores in 27 countries. In the United States, Walmart has a 43% market share of the grocery business. In the UK, Asda has a 16.7% share of the grocery market.
So, while Asda is part of Walmart, it is not the only grocery store that Walmart owns. In fact, Walmart owns many different types of stores in addition to groceries, such as department stores, home improvement stores, and even pharmacies.
As for whether or not Asda UK is part of Walmart, the answer is yes. Asda is owned by Walmart and therefore falls under its umbrella.
