Asda has rolled out a slew of Extra Special products into 40 stores in Mexico, outlets owned by the company’s parent Wal-Mart.


Asda told just-food today (6 August) that the existing range included “traditional English products” like marmalades, jam and fudge. The company plans to double the range on sale in Mexico to meet demand.
