The supermarket has also committed an additional £5m to upgrade its existing stores under its ‘Project Fresh’ initiative.
The new layout offers increased space for the retailer’s Scottish range, including fresh meat and fish, bread and cakes and award-winning beers and spirits, as well as an improved food-to-go section. The format has been created to make shopping easier for customers with increased space and clearer signage.
In addition, the retailer will invest £20m to prepare for the roll-out of the Deposit Return Scheme, which will launch in August 2023.
Richard Holloway, Regional Managing Director at Aldi Scotland, said: “As we look to the New Year, our growth plan continues to be realised, with more stores and further investment in Scotland to reach more customers than ever before.”
The supermarket will also continue to support its local community initiatives with the return of its Scottish Sports Fund which has, to date, donated more than £340,000 to local sports clubs.
Supermarket Sweep will also return for its eighth year, giving customers a chance to dash through the aisles of the store in a nostalgic take on the 90s show, all while supporting local food banks.
