Missing out on an Aldi shopping experience? Not anymore in five areas

How so? Because Aldi is opening five new stores across the UK in the next several weeks.

They'll be joining the other existing 990+ stores that Aldi already operates. It'll be opening in new locations this month June including Southampton and Whittlesey.

Further stores in Norwich, Castle Donington and Porthcawl will also open early next month, July.

The new stores are a part of Aldi’s commitment to invest over £400 million in store development during 2023.

On average each new store will provide about 40 new jobs on average, thus offering a welcome boost to employment opportunities in local areas.

Store Assistants will be able earn up to £11 nationally, and £12.45 inside the M25 zone, with paid breaks included, increasing to £11.40 and £12.85 respectively from July.

George Brown, Aldi's Real Estate Director, said: “Demand for Aldi has never been higher, and more than two thirds of British households already shop with us.

“However, there are still too many people for whom shopping at Aldi isn’t a convenient option and we’re committed to changing that, thus we'll be giving even more people access to our award-winning products at unbeatable prices.

“To meet that demand, we're investing in new stores up and down the country and won’t stop until we’ve made quality, affordable food accessible to everyone.”

Aldi has been recognised by Which? as the UK’s Cheapest Supermarket for the past 12 consecutive months, with the latest figures showing Aldi was a massive £18.21 cheaper on a basket of shopping than the most expensive supermarket, Waitrose.

List of store locations opening in the coming weeks include:

Hedge End Retail Park, Southampton

Eastrea Road, Whittlesey

Station Road, Castle Donington

William Frost Way, Norwich

Eastern Promenade, Porthcawl
