There will be openings in Waltham Cross in Hertfordshire and Olney Park in Milton Keynes next month while town such as Aberdare in Wales, Broughty Ferry in Dundee and Leytonstone in London will see new stores launch “in the near future”.
The supermarket has also opened a new store in Goole earlier this month and is on track to have a total 35 new sites this year. Each shop creates an average of 40 new jobs.
