The supermarket chain revealed that several of its stores in the city were shut at 9pm on Tuesday, July 15.
Asda said the shops were closed to allow 'planned overnight maintenance'. The stores that shut for maintenance were: Govan, Toryglen, Robroyston, and Maryhill.
In a statement to the Glasgow Times, the retailer confirmed its stores have since reopened.

One said: "Just heard that Asda was shut early tonight. Hope everything was ok", to which one person replied: "Yeah, was (closed) at 9pm. I went to go in, don't know why though."
Meanwhile, another said: "Asda Toryglen shut", with a person replying: "Every Asda in every area is the same."
An Asda spokesperson said: "A few of our Glasgow stores closed at 9pm last night for planned overnight maintenance and reopened this morning.
"They're now open as normal, ready to welcome our customers, and we'd like to thank them for their understanding while the stores were closed temporarily overnight."
