Aldi is set to open five new stores across the UK in the coming weeks. The supermarket, which currently has more than 990 UK stores, will be opening in new locations in June including Southampton and Whittlesey.
Further stores in Norwich, Castle Donington and Porthcawl will also open in early July. The new stores form part of Aldi’s commitment to invest more than £400 million in store development this year.
Each new store opening will create around 40 new jobs on average, boosting employment opportunities within local areas. Store Assistants can earn up to £11 nationally, and £12.45 inside the M25, with paid breaks included – rising to £11.40 and £12.85 respectively from July.
