alk into any ASDA supermarket on a crowded Saturday afternoon and you’ll see the polished surface of a retail empire, bright aisles, restless trolleys, families hunting bargains, delivery drivers grabbing orders.

But beneath that visible world runs a deeper, hidden one: a powerhouse of distribution hubs, automation systems, algorithms, and frontline expertise. ASDA Logistics Services, the organisation that keeps the nation supplied without ever demanding the spotlight. Business Pursuit investigates.

While most customers would have been completely unaware of it, there have been a number of changes following the takeover of ALS in 2020 by Issa brothers and TDR Capital. Despite this, quality has never suffered. To understand how ASDA achieved this in the high-stakes world of British retail, you need to understand ALS. And in order to understand ALS today, you must understand their obsession with automation, robotics, and the future of fulfillment.

14

A Network Stretched Across the Nation ALS operates like a miniature country within a country: more than 43 major logistics sites, including food depots, chilled distribution

centres, ambient goods warehouses, import hubs, dot-com fulfilment centres, and national sortation facilities dealing with 1.5 billion parcels annually. Over 12,500 employees keep this supply chain alive, ensuring fresh produce, clothing, electronics, and general merchandise move fluidly through the system.

This isn’t a logistics arm built as an afterthought. It’s deliberate. Controlled. A system engineered to respond instantly to the tide of consumer demand, and increasingly powered by machines designed not merely to help, but to transform.

The New Robotic Muscle of ALS Walk into an ASDA sortation centre today and you’ll see something quietly revolutionary.

Squadrons of autonomous mobile robots slip across the floor with clinical precision, carrying parcels at a scale and speed that no manual process can match. Installed in partnership with automation firms like Geek+ and AMH, these AMRs form the beating mechanical heart of the ToYou parcel and returns service, an operation that moves parcels for dozens of major retailers.

But robotics at ASDA isn’t limited to backof-house fulfilment. One of the most significant,

and least publicly discussed, evolutions lies in ASDA’s long-running partnership with Cleveron, the Estonian robotics firm known for reshaping last-mile logistics.

Why Cleveron and ASDA Joined Forces According to Mark Schneider, Business Development Director (UK) at Cleveron, the appeal was immediate. He explains that ASDA sought not just automation, but true robotics; technology capable of replacing labour-intensive manual processes with “consistent, high-volume performance.”

ASDA recognised that to future-proof their click-and-collect services, they needed a partner capable of expanding, adapting, and innovating at speed.

Since then, he continues, the partnership has evolved into a broader innovation journey. They have expanded well beyond the initial scope, including hybrid store formats where traditional locker banks and robotic units operate side by side, “It’s a flexible, scalable model that reflects how closely we collaborate with Asda to meet the needs of each location.” he says.

The companies now deploy hybrid store formats where traditional locker banks work side-by-side with robotic towers, depending

on site constraints and volume requirements.

Every location is tailored, every solution modular. It’s a collaboration defined not by uniformity, but by flexibility.

sake,” he tells Business Pursuit, “It is automation that makes ASDA materially faster, more consistent, and more resilient than semi-automated rivals.”

Integration Into ASDA’s Retail Ecosystem Cleveron’s robotics were first deployed in ASDA stores in 2018, and the priority from day one was frictionless integration. Schneider reveals that their systems were designed to slide into existing store operations without upheaval, a principle that proved essential during rollout.

He admits that there were, of course, challenges: adapting store layouts, retraining colleagues, and aligning processes around new automated flows. But through what he describes as “close cooperation with Asda’s teams,” the systems became a natural part of ASDA’s digital retail environment.

And today, those robotic units operate as if they were always meant to be there, quietly, reliably, and at a scale unmatched by any other UK grocer.

More Automation, More Ambition Their partnership isn’t slowing down either as ALS and Cleveron continue to explore emerging technologies. These include enhanced robotic click-and-collect units to oversized parcel solutions and other nextgeneration systems. Discussions even extend to autonomous delivery concepts and micro-fulfilment robotics. What binds them, Schneider says, is a shared vision of continuous improvement, constant testing, and innovation that aligns with ASDA’s broader goals.

“Whatever shape the next phase takes,” Schneider says, “Cleveron is committed to growing alongside Asda and supporting the future of their automated services.”

Changing the Customer Experience For customers, the change has been dramatic. The old model, which involved queueing, waiting for staff to retrieve parcels and delays during peak hours, has been replaced with an instant, automated pickup. Customers scan, collect, and walk out. Freeing up staff to attend their focus elsewhere.

Scheiders also says that Cleveron report measurable gains including shorter pickup times and higher throughput which allows for a more predictable turnaround and a higher customer satisfaction, resulting in repeat usage “In logistics, reliability is currency,” Schneider tells us.

A Competitive Edge in a Crowded Market While automation experiments have become fashionable across UK retail, Cleveron is blunt about one thing: ASDA is still the only major UK grocer deploying robotics at this scale in customer-facing parcel collection.

“Early adoption gives them a meaningful advantage,” Schneider says, highlighting that ASDA’s competitive strength lies in the pairing of two forces: firstly, Cleveron’s proven robotics that are built for speed, capacity, and fault-tolerance, and ASDA’s operational discipline, seen especially through ALS’s tightly controlled supply chain.

“It’s not automation for automation’s

The human element It’s tempting to imagine ALS as an army of machines doing all the work. But that’s not how the system actually functions.

Robots sort, store, retrieve, lift while people coordinate, supervise, plan, maintain, and solve the problems the machines can’t.

When a lorry breaks down in the Midlands at 3:47 a.m., a human makes the call. When a store’s demand forecast shifts overnight, a planner adjusts the route map.

When a robotic unit needs recalibration, an engineer steps in.

In a world increasingly concerned regarding the human element being drippeddrained out, it is important to remember that automation may be the new muscle of ALS, but people remain its heartbeat.

The Quiet Power of ALS ASDA Logistics Services is not glamorous.

It doesn’t seek headlines. But every time a customer picks up an order in seconds, receives a parcel return confirmation instantly, or finds a store aisle stocked exactly when they expect it, ALS has done its job.

And increasingly, it’s doing that job with the help of advanced robotic systems that don’t just serve the present, but anticipate the future.

In this way ALS is the engine room, the feet-on-the-ground innovation lab and the unglamorous, unstoppable force keeping ASDA ahead in the race for retail relevance. A machine of steel, circuits, data, working with the thousands of people who keep it alive.

Clonakilty Blackpudding Company

T

here are few Irish food companies that inspire the level of affection and respect earned by Clonakilty Blackpudding Company, a business that has grown from local favorite to national treasure without ever losing the spirit of its small town beginnings. The company represents the best qualities of Irish food culture, blending craftsmanship, authenticity and genuine community connection in every product that leaves its doors. It stands as a symbol of how dedication to quality and pride of place can elevate a humble family recipe into something cherished across generations. Clonakilty Blackpudding Company has become a point of pride not just for West Cork but for anyone who values honest food prepared with care.

A Legacy Crafted With Care The roots of the company stretch back to the nineteenth century, when a local butcher named Philip Harrington created a recipe for black pudding that became a quiet legend within the town of Clonakilty. For decades the recipe was passed carefully from one custodian to the next, surviving not because of corporate strategy or marketing ambition but because people genuinely believed in its excellence. When the Twomey family became caretakers of the recipe in the

nineteen eighties, they embraced not only the responsibility of preserving a longstanding tradition but also the opportunity to share it with a wider audience. Their approach was never about rapid expansion. It was about maintaining the integrity of a product rooted in community and memory.

The company often reflects on the importance of protecting the original recipe, which remains a closely guarded secret.

The recipe is at the heart of the company’s identity and continues to be prepared in the same thoughtful way that has always defined it. Clonakilty Blackpudding Company demonstrates that heritage can be a living force, not a static relic. This commitment is embodied in its long standing motto that quality is never an accident but the result of continued effort and dedication.

“Our story begins with a simple recipe and a belief in doing things the right way.”

Central to the company’s appeal is the unmistakable flavor and texture of its products. The black pudding remains the company’s flagship and continues to win admirers around the world. Its richness, depth and gentle seasoning set it apart, providing a reminder that simplicity perfected is far more compelling than novelty for its own sake. The company expanded over time

respect for tradition that made the original famous. Customers trust the brand because they know that every product reflects the same ethos.

Growing With Purpose Despite its growth, Clonakilty Blackpudding Company has never allowed success to overshadow its commitment to local identity. The company remains firmly rooted in West Cork, an area known for its thriving food culture and entrepreneurial spirit. Its expansion has been guided by relationships with local farmers, suppliers and employees who understand the values that shaped the company from the start. By supporting its community, the company reinforces the idea that food is not simply about nourishment but about connection and shared experience.

The company’s new facility in Clonakilty, built to meet rising demand, is a testament to how tradition and innovation can work together. Modern equipment ensures efficiency and consistency, while carefully preserved techniques ensure authenticity. The design of the facility reflects a deep respect for heritage, incorporating elements that honor the company’s origins. It represents the next chapter in the company’s story, one in which growth complements tradition rather than diluting it.

“We grow because people believe in our products and trust the passion behind them.”

The company also continues to find new ways to celebrate Irish culture.

for ingredients and process is evident in its sourcing practices. It works closely with trusted suppliers who share its values and appreciate the importance of quality. The company remains focused on real food made with real care, believing that food created with attention and intention carries a certain truth that cannot be replicated by shortcuts.

This belief has helped the company remain distinctive in a crowded marketplace.

“Quality is the thread that connects every part of our story.”

This culture of pride and respect extends to the company’s employees, who are seen not merely as staff but as stewards of a shared heritage. Many speak openly about the sense of belonging that comes from working for a business that values tradition and community as much as profit.

This atmosphere of respect helps ensure that every product leaving the facility carries the quiet dignity of those who crafted it.

spresso House has become a cherished anchor in the daily routines of millions who seek comfort, quality and a genuine sense of belonging. Anyone who steps inside one of its inviting locations is welcomed by a thoughtfully crafted atmosphere that feels familiar yet uplifting, a place where the aroma of freshly prepared coffee blends with the hum of relaxed conversation. The company stands out as a champion of craft coffee combined with a heartfelt guest experience. This strong identity is reinforced every day through a commitment to premium beans, talented baristas and the belief that great coffee shops can make neighbourhood life brighter. The brand thrives because it understands that people do not simply want coffee, they want connection, and Espresso House delivers this with impressive consistency across markets while keeping its Nordic roots clearly present.

A Scandinavian Story of Growth and Craft The rise of Espresso House from a single shop in Lund to one of the most influential

coffee chains in the region reflects both entrepreneurial spirit and an unwavering focus on product excellence. Scandinavian coffee culture has long favoured authenticity and warmth, and the company has expertly translated these values into a modern café environment that appeals to a broad audience. Guests know that they can expect a cup brewed with care, whether it is a bold espresso, a smooth latte or a seasonal creation designed to celebrate a moment in time. Baristas are central to this promise, trained not only to perfect technique but also to connect with guests in a genuine way that makes each visit feel personal.

The brand’s growth has been accompanied by a dedication to responsible sourcing practices and an intent to support sustainable coffee futures. Espresso House understands that quality begins long before beans arrive at a roastery. Through trusted relationships with growers, the company helps ensure that the coffee in every cup reflects the hard work of farming communities and the value of long term collaboration. The result is a product that tastes great and carries a story of care,

Great coffee becomes even greater when served with heart.

respect and partnership across borders.

Another key element of this growth has been the consistent design and atmosphere of Espresso House locations. Each coffee shop blends Scandinavian simplicity with warm textures and thoughtful seating arrangements that encourage guests to linger. The ambience is carefully shaped to

offer both energy and calm, a balance that makes the brand appealing to students, remote workers, families and commuters.

This sense of place is as important as the beverage in hand. It allows Espresso House to offer a haven where the world slows, if only for a moment, and where guests can savour something crafted with purpose.

Craft, Community and the Everyday Ritual Coffee houses have always served as community hubs, and Espresso House embraces this tradition with enthusiasm. The brand understands that daily rituals matter, and many guests choose the same table or greet the same barista each morning as part of their day. These small moments form a pattern of familiarity that builds trust and loyalty. Espresso House works to foster this experience by ensuring that its teams take pride in their work and find joy in hospitality. A warm hello, a remembered order or a friendly chat can turn a routine visit into a highlight of someone’s day.

Food also plays an important role in shaping the Espresso House experience.

The menu reflects a mix of Scandinavian tastes and popular café favourites, offering pastries, sandwiches and fresh items that pair effortlessly with the full coffee selection.

The emphasis on quality remains constant.

Whether a guest chooses a classic cinnamon bun or a new seasonal treat, they can expect thoughtful preparation and ingredients selected with care. Guests appreciate this level of detail because it reinforces the feeling that Espresso House is not simply another chain but a brand that takes pride in every element of its offering.

“A café is more than a cup. It is a moment shared.”

Innovation is another hallmark of the company’s approach. Espresso House continuously refines its offerings, introducing new beverages and experiences that reflect shifting tastes while maintaining the integrity of its core identity. Seasonal drinks, creative flavour combinations and improved brewing methods keep the menu exciting without disrupting the beloved staples that long time guests rely on. This balance between tradition and creativity positions the brand as both reliable and forward thinking, a rare combination that contributes to its strong reputation.

A Positive Force in Modern Coffee Culture One of the most impressive aspects of Espresso House is its ability to expand without losing the authenticity that made it successful in the first place. While the brand has grown significantly across markets, it continues to project a distinctly Nordic character grounded in simplicity, sincerity and appreciation for craft. This identity resonates across cultures because it focuses on universal human desires. People everywhere seek comfort, quality and a welcoming place to pause, and Espresso House delivers that experience reliably and with charm.

The company also takes pride in supporting its employees. Training programs, leadership development and opportunities for advancement help create a workplace culture where individuals feel valued and motivated. This investment in people pays off in the form of exceptional guest service.

When teams feel proud of where they work, their enthusiasm becomes visible to every person who walks through the door.

Espresso House recognises that hospitality begins with those who provide it, and it continues to nurture the talent that keeps its cafés vibrant.

The influence of Espresso House on modern coffee culture extends beyond its physical locations. The brand has helped shape expectations for what a contemporary café should feel like. It has shown that large scale operations can still maintain soul, warmth and craft. Guests respond to this authenticity, and their loyalty demonstrates the power of a brand that stays true to its values even as it evolves.

“Quality is not a trend. It is a promise kept daily.”

As the world continues to embrace the café as a gathering place, Espresso House is well positioned to lead with vision and integrity. Its commitment to premium beans, thoughtful design, friendly service and sustainable practices creates a blend of strengths that few can match. The company remains a beacon of comfort for guests seeking a reliable and uplifting place to enjoy a moment of calm or connection. Espresso House proves that a cup of coffee, when approached with intention and care, can brighten the everyday and bring people together in meaningful ways.

Within the broad and complex landscape of subsea engineering, CRP Subsea has shaped a reputation that reflects both its heritage and its vision for the decades ahead.

A Legacy Built Through Expertise From its earliest chapters, CRP Subsea recognised that subsea protection is more than a single product or material concept.

It is a discipline that requires technical depth, precise understanding of offshore challenges and an instinct for problem

solving that elevates every project. The company has become a trusted voice because it brings the ability to merge advanced manufacturing with deep domain knowledge, forming solutions that work intuitively with the forces of the sea rather than against them. This guiding philosophy has powered its continued evolution and placed the needs of customers at the centre of every major decision.

Its buoyancy and cable protection systems are created through rigorous testing, refined engineering and materials science expertise that ensures the final product does not simply meet expectations but sets new standards for the sector.

Innovation Driving the Future The global energy landscape is undergoing significant transformation, and CRP Subsea has embraced this shift with energy and clarity. As the world expands its appetite for renewable sources, offshore wind has emerged as a critical frontier. The demands of these projects require products that merge durability with adaptability, and CRP Subsea continues to supply solutions that satisfy both requirements. Through continued investment in research and development, the company brings forward designs that address the evolving nature of offshore infrastructure while maintaining the reliability for which it is known.

One example of this forward thinking is the company’s approach to material technology.

By refining polymer science and exploring new possibilities, CRP Subsea creates products that withstand time, pressure and movement.

These advances are driven not by trend but by necessity, and they position the company as a critical contributor to the future of global offshore capability.

This meticulous approach is essential because offshore assets cannot fail. CRP Subsea’s standards reflect this responsibility and demonstrate why the company has long been viewed as a cornerstone of subsea protection.

The organisation also maintains a clear focus on sustainability. Offshore industries increasingly seek to reduce environmental impact, improve efficiency and build infrastructure that supports long term ecological balance. CRP Subsea responds to these goals through responsible manufacturing practices and product innovations that promote durability and minimise waste.

progression. As demand grows for smarter home management the company works to integrate more responsive control technologies. By creating systems that allow homeowners to better manage their energy use Ideal supports a shift toward more responsible consumption. This capacity for evolution sits at the heart of the company’s success because it expresses a long established ability to anticipate change rather than chase it.

A customer centred approach Ideal Boilers has never lost sight of the fact that technical excellence means little without customer trust. As a result the company shapes its manufacturing processes and service commitments around what real people require. This extends from the clear layout of its user interfaces to the accessible advice available from its support teams.

Homeowners value simplicity during installation and simplicity during operation and Ideal recognises that these needs matter as much as any internal specification. The company’s focus on accessible operation makes its boilers popular with families, older homeowners and anyone who prefers straightforward controls.

Installers also appreciate the practical construction of Ideal products.

Its modern boilers are designed to reduce energy consumption while maintaining strong heating performance. This effort helps customers lower their energy costs and supports a broader commitment to responsible resource use.

Climate goals and new standards for energy performance have motivated manufacturers across the sector to explore new technologies. Ideal is involved in these changes and works to ensure its products meet or exceed the expectations of governing bodies. By focusing on high efficiency heat exchangers, more precise modulation and advanced combustion systems the company helps create heating solutions that are ready for a more sustainable future.

Another important aspect is ease of integration. Homes across the UK vary in age and construction, and Ideal ensures its boilers work effectively within both modern and traditional properties.

While boilers remain central to many homes, the company continues to prepare for wider changes, supporting training initiatives and system compatibility that allow homeowners and professionals to navigate the transition with greater confidence.
