Attention Aldi Shoppers: This Is The Best News We’ve Seen All Week!
Big news, Aldi lovers! Your favorite store is opening more locations!
Aldi said they planned to open 225 new stores in 2025, and we’re getting quite a few more in Florida.
Thirteen new Aldi stores are opening in Florida, three of which will be in the Central Florida area. Florida is already home to 243 stores, and we’re happy to see more coming our way!
One Orlando location at 1403 South Hiawassee Road is set to open this summer and employ 15 to 20 people.
Some of these stores are former Winn-Dixie buildings that Aldi is taking over and turning into its own supermarkets. They started this process last summer with nine conversions. Aldi stores are typically smaller than typical grocery stores, being only about 12,000 square feet.
The Senior Vice President told the Orlando Business Journal, “The stores they are converting, they are subdividing the spaces and setting up a traditional Aldi footprint. Aldi derives its low costs from many things, including operating very efficiently. All of them are generally the same size and dimensions, so they can merchandise them all similarly.”
Aldi is investing $9 billion to open 800 new locations across the United States. In March 2024, they announced these plans after acquiring Jacksonville-based Southern Grocers and its 400 Winn-Dixie and Harveys Supermarket stores, including the 39 in Central Florida.
A store in Deltona at 2880 Howland Boulevard is opening on April 30th. The grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony will happen on May 1st at 9 AM. The first 100 customers at the grand opening will receive a Golden Ticket that can be worth up to $100 and a bag filled with Aldi products. Other shoppers will also get a chance to win $500 Aldi gift car each day from May 1st to 4th.
We love Aldi and its amazing deals, especially when it comes to Disney merchandise. Even more stores in Central Florida mean more chances to get amazing deals. Keep following Disney Food Blog for more!
