Supermarket giant Asda has opened several new stores in Tayside, Fife and Stirling.

The Asda Express outlets have opened at petrol stations across the region.

It comes as Asda is converting hundreds of Co-op and EG Group sites across the UK this year.

The firm has pledged the stores will offer cheaper products than before.

Asda previously confirmed it was also opening Express stores in Birkhill and Aberfeldy.

Andy Perry, Asda’s vice-president of convenience, said: “Asda’s significant investment in building a nationwide chain of convenience stores is a key component of our long-term strategy to become the number two player in UK grocery.

“The teams have worked at pace to reach this point and we look forward to bringing Asda’s quality and low prices to many more communities across the UK.”

The new stores are stocking up to 3,000 own-brand-labelled products.

Asda is hoping to reach 1,000 UK stores for the first time in its history.

Other changes include going cashless at its petrol station in Kirkcaldy.
