New Aldi store swings open its doors in Glasgow's east end

A brand new Aldi store has opened its doors to customers in the east end of Glasgow.

Standing at 1,175 sqm of retail space, the Parkhead store will be run by Store Manager Thomas Gallagher, along with a team of 28 colleagues from the local community.

The new store features Aldi's famous middle aisle with Specialbuys - from electrical items to garden tools - appearing every Thursday and Sunday.

Thomas Gallagher said: “It’s been a wonderful morning here at the opening of Aldi Parkhead. It was lovely to welcome our new customers into store and I look forward to meeting more of the community in the coming weeks.

“I’d also like to thank our customers for following the social distancing guidelines we have in place to ensure the health and safety of both our customers and colleagues.”

The new store will be open from 8am to 10pm on Monday and Saturdays and 9am to 8pm on Sundays.
