Aldi to open 9 London stores as part of £650m investment

Aldi is set to open nine stores in the capital this year as the grocer aims to invest £650m in Britain in 2025.

Building on its promise to bring “unbeatable value” to even more Londoners, the supermarket has revealed four of the locations set to welcome new Aldi stores in the next 12 months.

Shoppers in Wimbledon, Fulham Broadway, Caterham and Orpington are all set to benefit from a new Aldi store in 2025 as part of a £55m investment within the M25.

The investment also includes upgrades at some of its existing locations within the M25, including an extension to its Colindale store.

Aldi has a long-term ambition to open another 100 stores in London, creating around 3,500 new jobs.

Jonathan Neale, managing director of National Real Estate at Aldi UK, said: “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.”
