Aldi has revealed the location of 23 potential new stores as part of a record £1.6billion expansion over the next two years.
The German-owned supermarket says it plans to open 80 stores across 2026 and 2027 as part of the investment.
Currently, Aldi, the UK’s fourth-largest supermarket, has more than 1,050 UK stores with a long-term goal of reaching 1,500 stores.
New locations being targeted include locations in London, the West Midlands, Manchester, Yorkshire, South Wales, East Sussex and the Isle of Wight.
Hurley, chief executive of Aldi UK, said: ‘Shoppers are still finding things difficult and that’s why we’re staying laser-focused on doing what Aldi does best – offering customers great quality products at unbeatable prices.
‘Nobody else is making the same commitment to everyday low prices – no clubs, no gimmicks, no tricks – just prices our customers can trust, and quality they can depend on.
‘Since we opened our first UK store more than 35 years ago, we’ve brought high-quality, affordable groceries to almost 800 towns and cities, but there are hundreds more communities that don’t have an Aldi nearby.’
