Great news for shoppers in the UK! The popular supermarket chain, Aldi, has announced plans to open 11 new stores before Christmas. This expansion is part of their long-term goal to have 1,500 stores across the country. With an investment of £800 million this year alone, Aldi is committed to making high-quality and affordable food accessible to everyone.
The first new stores to open this week are located in Sedgley, West Midlands and Castle Douglas, Scotland. But that's not all - Horsham in West Sussex and Muswell Hill in London will also be welcoming new stores in November. And the list goes on, with even more store openings scheduled for December in places like Totton, Hampshire and Cribbs Causeway, Bristol.
But it's not just about new stores. Aldi is also dedicated to improving the customer experience at their existing locations. Over 15 stores will undergo refurbishments before Christmas, introducing sustainable features to enhance the shopping experience.
Excitingly, these new Aldi stores will offer employment opportunities as well. Store Assistants can expect a starting pay of £12.40 per hour, with those in London earning £13.65 per hour. And unlike other supermarkets, Aldi is proud to offer paid breaks to their employees, which can add up to over £900 a year for the average store colleague.
As Jonathan Neale, Real Estate Managing Director at Aldi UK, puts it, "Our new store openings are a testament to our ongoing investment in the UK." The company is dedicated to bringing their unbeatable prices to even more communities, especially as we approach the festive season. So keep an eye out for these new Aldi stores in places like West Midlands, West Sussex, and Gwynedd - they'll be opening their doors very soon!
