Aldi to invest £67 million in store upgrades in 2025
Aldi is to invest £67 million in upgrading its existing shops this year as it moves onto the next stage of its store enhancement programme.
The new work will include introducing significant enhancements such as improved bakery and enhanced health and beauty fixtures for customers.
Additionally, stores will receive CO2 refrigeration upgrades that will contribute to an estimated reduction in carbon emissions equivalent to heating over 6,500 homes, when the programme is complete.
The supermarket has spent almost £600 million on store upgrades since 2017 which have focused on creating a better shopping experience for customers. This has included creating more space for fresh, chilled, and food-to-go ranges, alongside the introduction of simpler layouts, improved fixtures and energy efficient LED lighting.
Never Miss a Retail Update!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.”
Aldi is also investing approximately £650 million in new store openings across Britain in 2025 in places like Fulham Broadway in London, Billericay in Essex, and Cheadle in Stoke-on-Trent.
