WASHINGTON, DC - On the heels of its $1.6 billion remodel announcement in February, Aldi has released more detailed plans dedicating $30 million of the investment to the D.C. region.
“We know there is only one way to attract and keep fans: continually providing the highest-quality products, while staying true to what our competitors can’t match—everyday low prices,” said Jeff Baehr, an Aldi Division Vice President, according to source WTOP.
The source reported that Aldi has finished remodeling 17 Washington-area stores and has scheduled grand re-openings at stores in Stafford, Fredericksburg, and Manassas on May 12. The regional remodel will encompass 30 stores total, with work completed by 2018.
The complete $1.6 billion remodeling plan will cover over 1,300 U.S. stores. As we’ve previously reported, the discount retailer’s remodeling plans include a focus on a more robust produce aisle, with an updated modern design.
The company has also disclosed plans to open 650 new stores, bringing the total stores up to 2,000 by the end of next year.
