Aldi is set to open a brand-new store in Aberdare on Thursday 22nd August at 8am.
The new store will be run by Store Manager Paul Bibby, along with a team of 31 colleagues from the local community.
As part of the supermarket’s investment in local communities across the UK, the new store will offer more customers access to Aldi’s high quality, low-price products. In fact, consumer group Which? confirmed Aldi as the UK’s Cheapest Supermarket for 2023* – the third year in a row that it has been awarded this title.
The new store will offer fresh, Welsh meat products with weekly offers, Aldi’s award-winning ‘Specially Selected’ range, exclusive Beers, Wines and Spirits, and a ‘Food to Go’ section at the front of the store. Aldi’s legendary Specialbuys will also be available in the middle aisle every Thursday and Sunday, offering extraordinary value on a wide range of products, from electrical items to garden tools.
As Aldi has been fuelling Team GB with fresh, healthy food since 2015 through monthly vouchers, Paul Bibby and his team will be joined by silver medallist Sam Cross to celebrate the store opening by cutting the all-important ribbon on opening morning. Sam will also give away Team GB-themed goodie bags to celebrate the Paris 2024 Olympic games, along with complimentary bags of fresh fruit and vegetables from Aldi’s famous Super 6 range to the first 30 customers in the queue.
Aldi Store Manager Paul Bibby said: “We can’t wait to open the doors to the new store in Aberdare. It’s set to be a special day and having Olympic hero Sam Cross join us will make it a morning to remember.”
Rugby star Sam Cross 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 support of Team GB.”
The new Aldi store is also calling on local charities and food banks in Aberdare to register with Neighbourly, a community engagement platform that links businesses to charitable organisations in the local community.
