A SUPERMARKET is set to invest more than £6.5 million in new and upgraded stores across Berkshire this year.

Aldi is making improvements to the Newbury store, which is set to reopen this year, as well as the development of its new store in Maidenhead.

The investment is part of the supermarket’s recent expansion drive, which is on track to create 6,000 new jobs across the UK this year. Aldi is currently recruiting for 130 store roles in Berkshire.

Giles Hurley, chief executive officer, Aldi UK and Ireland, said: “We’ve been helping Britain find the best value for money when it comes to their food shop for more than 30 years, and the demand for our low prices is now higher than ever.

“We know however, that there are still areas that don’t have a store, or that need more or larger stores to meet increased customer demand.

“That’s why our 2023 expansion plans are focused on making sure our award-winning products at unbeatable prices become accessible to even more people.”

The supermarket is also currently recruiting for more than 1,000 jobs across its 11 regional distribution centres around the UK.

From July 1, starting pay for Aldi Store Assistants will increase to £11.40 per hour nationally and £12.85 within the M25.

This is boosted by the fact that Aldi remains the only UK Supermarket to offer paid breaks, which for the average store colleague, will be worth £927 annually.
