Some have already started, but it's probably quite a big and expensive job. Redesigning the layouts, new uniforms, staff training in the way Asda do things, restocking, new signage, changing tills etc. etc. etc.
Of the three Netto's round here one has already started the changes, staff now wear Asda uniforms and according to the local paper, the store will close for a refit and redesign in the next month or two. The other two stores haven't started changing over yet though so I suspect it is being done gradually.
I love the way someone launches into a new thread assuming everyone knows what tf they are talking about;)
I presume this is on the news somewhere?
It has been reported in plenty of news sources over the last year: Adsa/Wal-Mart bought the UK operations of Netto, the OFT said 47 stores had to be sold, Asda will convert the stores to its format during 2011.

This is the first of me hearing about it, but I did that magical thing where I read what other people are saying and use my brain. From what I read, I've worked out that Asda has bought over Netto, am I right? :rolleyes:

Netto is a Danish retailer which trades across Europe. They had 193 stores in England and Wales which were sold to Wal-Mart last year. Those stores will be converted to Asda during this year.

Maybe motsy will know
I have no idea either.
Hi mum and dad and cousin George! I'm on DS as the moment, speak to you later.
Why? I thought all the stores will be turned into Asda?

Asda bought most of the Netto stores in the UK and are re-branding them slowly. That's it basically.
Slowly eroding choice and destroying communities.
No, it means Netto will no longer exist in the UK.

Netto is a supermarket.

Yes. Here is the News Article
I don't believe you don't know what Netto is, they're everywhere, advertise in newspapers and are always shoving their leaflets through doors.
