Aldi is set to open 12 new stores in the UK by the end of 2023.
In September 2023 Aldi revealed plans to open 500 new stores across the UK, including 20 before the end of 2023.
The plan is said to be part of a two-year £1.3 billion investment into expansion and would see the supermarket giant's UK portfolio grow to 1,500 stores.
But despite outlining proposed sites where it would like to build - including in Cardiff, Oxford, Twickenham and Birmingham - it had not revealed the location of any new stores. Until now.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
