Aldi has revealed a list of proposed sites for new supermarket openings, following feedback gathered from its customers. The popular UK supermarket sought suggestions from the general public in May to shortlist the locations for potential new stores.
Aldi has reviewed thousands of customer emails and, based on the feedback, compiled a fresh list of potential sites for new store openings. At present, Aldi operates 1,050 stores across the UK and plans to expand that number to 1,500. The company aims to invest £650 million in its UK growth throughout 2025.
Each potential site should be able to support a 20,000 square foot store and include space for around 100 parking bays.
Ideally, the site will be positioned along a main road and enjoy strong visibility. In London, Aldi is looking to expand in Ealing, Bromley and South Croydon.
Jonathan Neale, managing director of national real estate at Aldi UK, said: "We want to make high-quality, affordable food accessible to everyone, and that means opening new stores in the communities that need them most.
"The response from the public has been invaluable in helping us identify where demand is greatest, and where we need to focus our efforts on finding the sites that can become new stores."
