Aldi has revealed a full list of more than 20 stores that will undergo major improvements before the end of the year.

The supermarket has confirmed that two of its stores - Barrow-in-Furness in Cumbria and Ebbw Vale in Wales - will undergo extensions between now and December.

A further 21 Aldi stores will benefit from other upgrades, including refreshed fixtures, enhanced layouts and improved sustainability features.

Aldi has already completed upgrades in more than 500 of its stores, including modernised layouts, more space for fresh and chilled products, and brighter, wider aisles.

Jonathan Neale, Managing Director of National Real Estate at Aldi UK, said: “Our investment into our store estate is part of our ongoing commitment to provide the very best shopping experience for our customers.

“By extending and refreshing our existing sites, we’re providing more sustainable and convenient stores, ensuring they continue to meet the needs of the communities they serve for years to come.”

Aldi is also continuing to open more stores in 2025, with around 40 new branches planned across the UK this year. Aldi has more than 1,050 stores and is working towards a long-term target of 1,500.

The supermarket recently published an updated list of priority locations across the UK where it wants to open new stores. Each site should be able to accommodate a 20,000 sq ft store with around 100 parking spaces and ideally be near a main road with good visibility and access.

Aldi is also on the lookout for sites to accommodate its Aldi Local store format in Central London in zones one and two, which typically have a minimum size of 5,000 sq ft of trading space, along with an additional 3,000 sq ft of ancillary space.

Mr Neale said: “At Aldi, our goal is to ensure everyone has access to high-quality food at unbeatable prices, and we’re committed to achieving that with our ambitious store opening plans.

“We’re targeting 40 new store openings in 2025, while many of our current stores will also be getting a refresh to enhance the customer experience, meaning we can consistently offer the best value for money to even more shoppers across the UK.”
