Aldi to invest £67m into store estate in 2025
Aldi is to invest £67m into upgrading its existing store estate in 2025.
The grocery retailer – which has already invested nearly £700m into store upgrades since 2017 – will look to create more space in its stores for its fresh, chilled, and food-to-go ranges, as well as introduce simpler layouts, improved fixtures, and energy efficient LED lighting.
Aldi will also look to make further improvements with in-store features including upgraded bakery and health and beauty fixtures, as well as improvements to CO2 refrigeration.
Jonathan Neale, managing director of national real estate at Aldi UK, said: “Aldi’s £67m investment is a major step forward in our commitment to delivering an even better shopping experience for our customers across Britain.
“Building on the success of our previous upgrades, we’re enhancing store layouts as part of our dedication to providing customers with more sustainable stores, convenience and an improved shopping experience nationwide.”
This comes after the retailer announced that it would be investing £650m into opening new stores across the UK in 2025.
The supermarket retailer will invest the funds into developing new stores in locations such as Fulham Broadway in London, Billericay in Essex, and Cheadle in Stoke-on-Trent.
