• Reuters reports that Walmart-owned Asda Group is attributing what it calls a strong in-store and online Christmas performance to a strategy that was not promotion-driven.
"Our strategy was to focus on gimmick-free, simple every day low price transparency for our customers and to hold our nerve when it came to the sales," the company said in a prepared statement. "This was against the backdrop of many other retailers vouchering heavily and starting their sales early, and resulted in us seeing record footfall over the Christmas period."
