Aldi has revealed the locations of 11 new stores set to open between now and Christmas.

New Aldi supermarkets are set to open this week in Sedgley in the West Midlands and Castle Douglas in Scotland, with Horsham in West Sussex and Muswell Hill in London next in line for later in November.

Aldi branches in Totton in Hampshire, Cribbs Causeway in Bristol and Pwllheli in Gwynedd also scheduled to open before Christmas.

Another 15 stores will undergo refurbishments in the same timescale to enhance the customer experience and introduce more sustainable features, according to Aldi.

“Our new store openings are a testament to our ongoing investment in the UK, and we’re thrilled to bring Aldi’s unbeatable prices to even more communities ahead of the festive season,” said Aldi UK real estate managing director Jonathan Neale.
