Leeds ASDA first to have new ‘futuristic aisle’

Asda’s great, isn’t it? No way it can be topped? Think again.

The supermarket giants have added over 50 products to its new futuristic aisle. The first of its kind in the UK. 

They’ve added multiple new products from many big name brands including Coca-Cola, Yorkshire Tea, Napolina, Tilda, Mars and Kellogg’s to its first ever sustainability store in Leeds.

Basically, customers can now take their own containers to fill up on items such as tea, coffee, rice, pasta and washing powder. Like a pic ’n’ mix. Remember Woolworths?

Shoppers purchasing Coke or Coke Zero can buy a prefilled one litre glass bottle which can then be returned to the store once finished with. And customers will get 20p off their shopping for each deposit.

The new products available in the Middleton store this week will include:

• Prefilled 1 Litre glass bottles of Coca-Cola Original Taste and Zero Sugar, which can be returned to the store when empty and deposited into a reverse vending machine. Customers get 20p off their shopping for each deposit, while Coca Cola clean and reuse each bottle
• An increased range of cereals including Kellogg’s Special K, Bran Flakes and Crunchie Nut Corn Flakes Nestle’s Shredded Wheat Bitesize as well as Asda Own Brand Cornflakes and Rice Snaps
• A range of Yorkshire Tea products such as Original, Decaf and Gold tea bags as well as loose tea
• More dried products such as Napolina Rigatoni, fusilli, penne pasta and Tilda basmati and jasmine rice
• Mars pet food such as Whiskas, Chappie and Pedigree, as well as Dreamies cat treats
• Silver Spoon sugar and own brand home baking and snacking including a selection of treats, seeds and nuts

How good is that? And Leeds is the first to have it! We’ve won the space race of shopping. Your move, Russia.
