Aldi is set to upgrade four stores across Scotland this summer as part of a wider £300 million investment into its existing UK estate throughout 2026.
The refurbishment programme will see improvements tailored to each location, with a focus on creating more space for shoppers and introducing enhanced sustainability features. Planned upgrades include energy-efficient fridge doors and the use of natural refrigerants aimed at reducing carbon emissions.
Selected stores will also benefit from refreshed bakery sections, alongside improved health and beauty and fresh food areas, designed to enhance the overall customer experience.
Across the UK, 25 Aldi stores are earmarked for upgrades, spanning locations such as Aberdeen, Musselburgh, Liverpool, London and Manchester.
