Aldi to open 130 stores
Aldi has confirmed plans to open 130 new stores in the UK over the next two years after sales hit a record high in 2017.
The German grocer said the move will create 5,000 jobs, while helping it move towards a previously set target of 1,000 stores by 2022.
The network will be supported by plans for three warehouses in Sheppey in Kent, Sawley in Derbyshire; and Bedford, as well as the extension of existing distribution centres in Darlington and Bathgate in West Lothian.
