🇬🇧 Aldi overtakes Asda Discount Retail Chain Aldi UK's successful ascent over Asda, positioning itself as the third-largest grocery retailer. According to Total Till figures from NIQ, over the 12 weeks to 23 March, Asda's market share stood at 11.7%, while Aldi's surged ahead to 12.2%. Notably, Asda encountered a period of diminished performance, with their sales seeing a mere 0.8% growth. This underperformance has been attributed to the challenges stemming from new ownership and the weight of heavy debt post-acquisition by the Issa brothers and TDR Capital, a concern echoed by leading retail analyst Clive Black of Shore Capital. Asda has expressed determination to regain ground, and as the industry data fluctuates, it's imperative for branded suppliers to realign their customer portfolio strategies to accommodate the impact of Aldi and Lidl's continued growth. These developments elevate concerns about how retailers like Asda and Morrisons might grapple with their escalating debt burdens in the face of Aldi's and Lidl's persisting expansion.

Brands can win if they can match that efficiency (in operations, manufacturing). But you have to know what you want to do first, and execute that with retail partners.
