The supermarket shared the news on social media, telling customers trading hours between Monday to Saturday would be extended. It comes after the supermarket giant temporarily reduced trading times to help cope with demand last month, following a surge in panic-buying and stockpiling. Posting on Twitter, Asda told shoppers: "Most of our stores are now open for longer to allow you more time to shop with us. The grocer's new opening times follow Aldi and Morrisons who have also introduced longer hours after hiring thousands more workers. Aldi previously reduced trading times by two hours to allow staff to replenish stock but has since reopened between 8am and 10pm.
