Aldi Is Expanding Again: Is a New Store Opening Near You?
If your grocery budget has you making regular Aldi runs, there's a good chance another store could soon be opening nearby.
The discount grocery chain is continuing its rapid expansion across the U.S., with four new locations set to open in Florida and Georgia in the coming months. But the additions are just a small piece of Aldi's much larger growth strategy as it works toward opening more than 180 new stores nationwide by the end of 2026.
Where are Aldi's new stores opening?
The next wave of Aldi locations will bring three stores to Florida and one to Georgia.
Florida shoppers can look forward to new stores in:
- Jacksonville (open now)
- Hobe Sound (summer 2026)
- Williston (later this year)
Meanwhile, Georgia will welcome a new Aldi in Douglas which is rumored to open on July 2.
Aldi's expansion is just getting started
As the company celebrates its 50th anniversary in the United States, it plans to open more than 180 stores across 31 states during 2026, according to a press release from January. By the end of the year, Aldi expects to operate nearly 2,800 stores nationwide as it works toward a long-term goal of 3,200 locations by the end of 2028.
"One in three U.S. households shopped at ALDI this past year, and in 2026 we're focused on making it even easier for customers to shop our aisles first," Aldi U.S. CEO Atty McGrath said in a statement. "That means bringing ALDI to even more neighborhoods, upgrading our website and planning additional distribution centers to keep our shelves stocked with the products our shoppers love."
What's next for Aldi?
Beyond the four upcoming stores, Aldi has even bigger plans on the horizon.
The grocer will enter Colorado for the first time within the next five years, beginning with more than 50 stores across the Denver and Colorado Springs markets. It's also continuing to expand throughout the Southeast, converting additional Southeastern Grocers locations into Aldi stores, while adding new distribution centers in Florida, Arizona, and Colorado to support its growing footprint.
