Aldi Scotland will open three new stores in 2025 – in Arbroath, Baillieston and Kirkintilloch – as part of a £40m two-year investment.
In addition to the new stores, the supermarket has committed to extending or refurbishing six of its existing sites over the next two years, with an extension planned for Galashiels, refurbishments planned for Linlithgow, Glenrothes and Stirling, and further upgrades in Hamilton and Carluke.
In addition, the supermarket will also this year recruit more than 100 new logistics staff to work at its Bathgate regional distribution centre.
Sandy Mitchell, regional managing director for Aldi Scotland, said: “I’m very proud to reflect on a highly successful 2024, during which time we welcomed 58 million customers to our Scottish stores, forged valuable partnerships with a range of new suppliers, and celebrated 30 years of Aldi in Scotland.
“As we look ahead to 2025, we remain committed to reaching more customers than ever before, with the opening of more stores and increased investment in Scotland.
“This move is a testament to our belief in Scotland’s vibrant economy and the exceptional quality of its suppliers. We remain committed to championing Scotland, creating local jobs, and strengthening our relationships with local partners as we continue to expand and enhance our offering.”
