The supermarket chain, which now has over 1,050 stores, will be opening 10 new shops across the country. The new sites come as part of Aldi's long-term plans to open 1,500 stores in the

UK. This year, the supermarket will be investing £650m in expanding its estate. There are plans to open 40 new UK stores. Aldi has not confirmed exactly when stores will open, reports the

Mirror. However, one is set to welcome customers in Newcastle over the summer months. Other locations on the list include Market Harborough in Leicestershire, Brighouse in West Yorkshire and

Oldbury in the West Midlands. Stores are also coming to Deeside in Wales and Fulham Broadway in London. Each new store opening will create around 40 new jobs, paying at least £12.75 and

£14.05 within the M25. From September 2025, Aldi workers are set for another pay increase to £12.85 per hour nationally and £14.16 per hour for those within the M25. Meanwhile, a number of

existing stores are due to be revamped. These include locations in Northumberland, County Durham and North Tyneside.. The list is below. Article continues below Jonathan Neale, managing

director of national real estate at Aldi UK, 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." LIST OF NEW ALDI STORES OPENING THIS SUMMER * Brighouse, West Yorkshire * Oldbury, West Midlands

an Aldi nearby. We’re always looking at key places where we see potential, but we also want to hear directly from the public about where the demand is greatest. Their input is invaluable as

we continue to grow and bring Aldi’s unbeatable value to more areas across Britain." Article continues below We have a dedicated newsletter for ChronicleLive’s money-saving and cost of
