Aldi is planning to open nine stores in London this year as part of a £55m investment within the M25.
Four of the locations set for openings in the next 12 months include Wimbledon, Fulham Broadway, Caterha, and Orpington. They form part of the discounter’s £650m investment plan for the UK in 2025, which also includes store upgrades.
Aldi stated that it has a long-term ambition to open another 100 stores in London.
Jonathan Neale, Managing Director of National Real Estate at Aldi UK, commented: “We strongly believe that everyone in Britain should have access to high-quality food at our unbeatable Aldi prices. But we know that there are still thousands of shoppers in the capital that don’t yet have access to an Aldi nearby.
“We don’t think it’s fair that so many people still have to make do with big prices at other supermarkets, which is why London continues to be a real focus for us as we work to bring even more Aldi stores to shoppers across the capital.”
NamNews Implications:
* Aldi are planning for a further 100 stores.
* With little need to exaggerate their intent.
* i.e. Take it as read...
* Then presumably rivals will match the coverage…
* …at least.
* (and suppliers too, hopefully?)
