Aldi confirms HUGE store change as it gives shop new lease on life after closing down – it’ll be ‘brighter & simpler’

ALDI will shut a UK store next week to inject a new lease of life into the aisles – in a massive new era for the supermarket.

Lovers of the budget grocer in Renfrewshire will be saddened to learn its checkouts will fall silent next month.

That’s because Aldi is closing its Erskine store at 8pm on Thursday, March 14, until 8am on March 21.

A spokesperson for the German retail giant said this is for “refurbishment works”.

They added: “When we reopen on Thursday 21st March at 8:00am, the store will be in our new layout.”

This ensures “more space” for fresh, chilled and food-to-go ranges.

Plus the whole store will be “much brighter with simpler layouts”, Aldi insisted.

This week the supermarket introduced an Irish cream that tastes just like a Cadbury’s Cream Egg.

Limited Edition Ballycastle Chocolate Crème is described as “a deliciously smooth, Irish Cream blend with delicate hints of chocolate and sweet vanilla.”

It follows months of changes at the supermarket, including the removal of wooden forks from its Food to Go range, which includes sushi, salads and pasta pots.

Aldi said the move, implemented across all its 990 stores, will save 28 tonnes of cutlery from being thrown in the bin, Aldi said.
