The UK’s fifth largest supermarket, Aldi has been on an expansion drive in recent years – opening around one new store a week on average – and now has more than 900 stores across the UK.
Ciaran Aldridge, National Property Director at Aldi UK, said: “We have been investing in Britain for more than 30 years now, but we know that there are still areas that either do not have an Aldi at all, or that need another store to meet customer demand.
“Shoppers are increasingly looking to get unbeatable prices on their weekly shop without compromising on quality.
