Sovereign Harbour ASDA - What is wrong ??

Sovereign Harbour ASDA was the first to trade into this area as out of Town Hypermarket, located in what then known as "The Crumbles".

ASDA sit on a vast valuable land located in a prime position.

The only problem with Sovereign Harbour ASDA is that they have had a series of changed Managers, at one time, so often in fact that in one year The Manager of Brighton ASDA at the Brighton Marina was also the Manager of Eastbourne ASDA.

ASDA Head Office in Leeds no such interest in ASDA Eastbourne and neither the Area Manager for ASDA.

While around Eastbourne ASDA a large Community of nearly 10,000 residents was built, ASDA Head Office ignored completly this Community which is located in Sovereign Harbour - nearly 6,500 Harbour residents live in the North Harbour and nearly 3,500 residents live in the South Harbour.

1.5 Million Shoppers visit Sovereign Harbour Retail Park each year.

Sovereign harbour have the largest marina in Europe - nearly 1,700 crafts.

Very busy Multi-Screen Cinema located within Sovereign harbour Retail Park.

Eastbourne ASDA still called themselved ASDA in the Crumbles.

Sovereign Harbour ASDA took no interest to be involved with Sovereign harbour Community.

It is hard to beleive that Mr. Sam ( Sam Walton the founder of WalMart ) will turn in his grave to think that one of his outlets have turned its back on its Community where valuable money is been generated.

It is time for Mr. Mike Duke the President & CEO of WatMart Parent Company of ASDA to call the shot and see that his team in the UK lead by Mr. Andy Clarke and his team in Leeds take an interest in Sovereign Harbour Community.

For a start, Sovereign Harbour Community need a Community Library which can be located within the empty premises of Eastbourne ASDA.

Second -  for Sovereign Harbour ASDA to be involved with Sovereign Harbour Community. 

There is so much ASDA can do and we all crying out for help.

Eastbourne ASDA in Sovereign Harbour ( Not the Crumbles ) maybe smaller than Brighton ASDA but the difference is ASDA Eastbourne is located in the Heart of Sovereign harbour Community while Brighton ASDA is not even in the centre of Brighton.

There is enough land for Sovereign Harbour ASDA to develop and bring in more employment in the area by establishing a Fast Food Complex by the round about to the entrance of Sovereign Harbour Retail Park.

I appeal again to Mr. Andy Clarke and his ASDA Management Team in Leeds to come down and see the situation at Sovereign Harbour.


Your ASDA Help to Sovereign Harbour Residents will be much appreciated.


Thank you
