other large stores include the united kingdom's first asda walmart supercentre, which was originally built by the french hypermarket chain carrefour in the late 1970s. then when carrefour pulled out of the uk it sold all of its stores, including the bristol hypermarket, to the dee corporation which owned the gateway store chain. then gateway sold all of its large format stores to asda in 1989, and it became an asda hypermarket. then after the sale of asda by its management to walmart in july 1999, it became the first asda wal*mart supercentre in july 2000. the store has since had yet another major refurbishment and has been rebranded as an asda supercentre and the walmart branding has been removed. this is also the location of the first morrisons supermarket in the south west of england which opened in september 2003. there is also a b&q diy store which also houses a furniture village, dfs, makro and wickes.
