Aldi has revealed it will open 11 new stores across the UK before the end of the year, on the same day it was beaten to the title of cheapest supermarket of the month.
The supermarket says it will open a total of one new store a week on average before the end of 2025.
Aldi said it is making a £650million UK investment this year, including refurbishing 35 current stores as well as the new openings.
The German-owned group, Britain's fourth biggest supermarket, is recruiting for 1,000 store roles as it ramps up its store opening programme.
Currently, Aldi has more than 1,050 UK stores with a long-term goal of reaching 1,500 stores.
