There are a number of well-worn phrases that singletons consider to be dating deal-breakers: I don t want kids ; I know I said I didn t smoke but. ; Whoops, I forgot our plans . But we can now add a new one to the list: I m not getting the Covid vaccine .
Petrol station operator EG Group has said it will buy the forecourt business of Asda exactly four months after its owners agreed to acquire the supermarket from Walmart.
The Blackburn based firm, which is co-owned by private equity group TDR Capital and brothers Zuber and Mohsin Issa, declared it would obtain Asda s car washes, ancillary land and petrol filling stations assets for £750million.
EG Group believes the takeover will be finalised in the second quarter of the year, and will add to the more than 6,000 forecourts it already runs across the world.
Preferred bidder: Any deal is expected to value the supermarket at around £6.5billion
