Aldi is opening a new store in Northumberland next week - and these pictures show what it looks like.
The branch, on Schalksmuhle Road, Bedlington, will be officially opened by Team GB silver medallist Gemma Gibbons on Thursday, November 25, at 8am.
The store has created around 25 jobs and will offer customers British meat products with weekly offers, Aldi’s Specially Selected range, exclusive beers, wines and spirits, and a ‘Food to Go’ section at the front of the site.

Aldi’s Specialbuys will also be available in the middle aisle every Thursday and Sunday, for a range of products, from electrical items to garden tools.
Store manager Kyle Davis said: “We can’t wait to open the doors to the new store in Bedlington.
"It’s set to be a special day and having Olympic hero Gemma Gibbons join us will make it a morning to remember.”
Judo star Gemma added: “I’m so excited to be opening Aldi’s new store. It will be great to chat to customers and a lovely way for me to thank Aldi for its support of Team GB.”
Additionally, the new store is calling on charities and food banks in Bedlington to register with Neighbourly, an initiative that links businesses to charitable organisations in the community.
Charities that register will be able to collect surplus food and perishable products, such as fruit, vegetables and baked goods, up to seven days a week.
Any charities in the area wishing to partner with Aldi should email aldi@neighbourly.com.
The branch opening hours will be Monday to Saturday 8am to 10pm, and Sunday 10am to 4pm.
