SAVANNAH, GA - The German grocer has global expansion on the brain, as it continues to grow its presence in multiple countries. Aldi has been eyeing the Chinese market and is moving forward with its push to cement a place for itself in the U.S. market, releasing plans to open multiple stores throughout Alabama, North Carolina, and Minnesota, and 15 new stores in California. Now, the retailer is narrowing in on another Southern region, with three more new stores set to open in Savannah, Statesboro, and Pooler, Georgia.

“We strive to make grocery shopping an enjoyable experience. We combine great food with affordable prices, and we’re excited to enter the Savannah market and show new communities of shoppers what we do best,” said Shaun O’Keefe, Jefferson Division Vice President. “We pride ourselves on saving people time and money, and we can’t wait to provide Statesboro, Pooler, and Savannah residents with grocery stores that meet their needs.”

According to WTOC11, the stores are slated to open in summer and fall of 2019, though no ground-breaking or opening dates have been released. Each new store will employ approximately 50 new employees.
