The brand has also shared its ambition to have 1,500 stores open across the nation as part of its long-term vision.
Speaking on the growth project and the four September openings, Jonathan Neale, managing director of national real estate, said: “We know there are still communities across the country that want access to an Aldi store, and we’re working hard to bring our unbeatable value to more of them.
“Opening a new store every week throughout September demonstrates the pace of our expansion, while creating new jobs and bringing high-quality, affordable food to even more shoppers.”
