UK supermarket giant teams up with Ocado to overhaul home deliveries

Asda will deploy Ocado's Smart Platform across its website, app, in-store picking, and last-mile delivery starting 2027, as part of executive chairman Allan Leighton's turnaround plan for the UK's third-largest supermarket. For retail tech and supply chain decision-makers, this signals that Ocado's fulfilment stack — already processing 70M+ orders/year across 11 countries — is becoming the de facto infrastructure layer for large-scale grocery e-commerce transformation.
