Aldi has disclosed a list of 11 areas where it plans to open additional stores before the end of the year.
In the upcoming months, the German bargain store will open new stores in London as well as Market Harborough, and Deeside.
It comes as Aldi invests £650 million to renovate 35 sites and open new ones before the year ends. It unveiled a second list of ten areas in May, including Yorkshire, Derbyshire, and Norfolk, where it hopes to open stores this summer.
The low-cost retailer has invested £55 million in its capital city locations alone, including two new locations in London.
In the capital, Aldi plans to create 3,500 new jobs by opening 100 more stores. Over time, the business hopes to grow from its present 1,050 locations to 1,500.
Jonathan Neale, managing director of national real estate at Aldi, said: "We’re now opening an average of one new store a week for the rest of 2025, showing just how ambitious our plans are to build a store network that will help us reach millions of new customers."

Aldi said last month that it will be the first supermarket in the UK to pay shop staff at least £13 per hour.
Starting on September 1, employees in the M25 will receive a salary increase to at least £14.33 per hour as part of the chain's basic rate of pay increase.
Additionally, the salary of long-serving employees will increase to £13.93 nationwide and £14.64 in London. The only supermarket that still provides paid breaks is Aldi; for the average employee, this translates to an additional £1,385 annually.
Boss Giles Hurley said: “Our people are the driving force behind our success. This latest investment in pay is a reflection of their hard work and the incredible contribution they make.
“We’re proud to remain the UK’s highest-paying supermarket and will continue to support our colleagues."
