Aldi is set to open a brand new store in Evesham.

The store will open on Thursday 3rd October at 8am.

Standing at 1,254 sqm of retail space, the Sinclair Retail Park store will be the second Aldi in Evesham and will be run by Store Manager, Alan Ridley.

Exclusive offers will run throughout the opening day and the first 30 customers through the door will receive a complimentary bag of fresh fruit and vegetables from Aldi’s fantastic Super 6 range.

The new store, which is part of Aldi’s investment in local communities across the UK, will bring a number of job opportunities to the area and offer more customers access to Aldi’s high quality, low-price products. The retailer aims to have 1,200 stores by 2025 and is committed to further improving its existing stores for customers across the country.

Aldi Evesham, will offer large chillers and freezers dedicated to fresh, British meat products, a ‘Food to Go’ section at the front of the store, a fixture along the back wall showcasing Aldi’s award-winning Beers, Wines and Spirits, and an exclusive section full of award-winning Health & Beauty products.

Customers can expect to find Aldi’s Specially Selected range, weekly fresh meat offers and famous Super 6 fruit and vegetables at the new store. Aldi’s legendary Specialbuys will also be available every Thursday and Sunday, offering extraordinary value on a wide range of products, from electrical items to garden tools.

To celebrate the store opening, Alan Ridley and his team will be joined by Olympic Silver Medallist, Frances Houghton, to cut the all-important ribbon on the opening morning.

Aldi Store Manager, Alan Ridley, said: “We can’t wait to open the doors to the new store in Evesham. It’s set to be a special day as we’ll be celebrating the opening of Aldi’s second store in the area and having Olympic hero, Frances Houghton, join us will make it a morning to remember.”

Rowing star, Frances Houghton, added: “I’m so excited to be opening Aldi’s new store, it will be great to chat to customers and a lovely way for me to thank Aldi for its endless support of Team GB.”

The visit from Frances comes as part of Aldi’s long-standing partnership with Team GB, and the supermarket’s new initiative, Kit for Schools. The Kit for Schools campaign is offering 20 schools across the UK the chance to win £20,000 each to invest in equipment for a healthy legacy.

Shoppers will receive stickers every time they spend £30 or more in store, which can be taken into schools and added to their sticker chart. Every UK school that signs up to the initiative will receive a sticker chart, and for each completed chart, they will receive one entry into the final prize draw to win £20,000 of equipment for a healthy legacy. All UK primary schools are eligible to take part and can sign up at getseteatfresh.co.uk/kitforschools.

Additionally, the new Aldi store is calling on local charities and food banks in Evesham to register with Neighbourly, a community engagement platform that links businesses to charitable organisations in their community, to receive regular donations of surplus food from the supermarket.

Local charities that register will be able to collect surplus food and perishable products, such as fruit, vegetables and baked goods, up to five days a week.
