ALDI to Open New Store in Roswell During May

Roswell residents will have a new grocery option beginning in May when ALDI opens its doors at the new location at Mansell and Crossville roads.

The select assortment discount grocer opens three new Atlanta-area stores, May 3. The openings mark the expansion of ALDI in metro Atlanta to more than 30 locations, allowing more shoppers to discover the store’s premium ALDI exclusive brands and quality grocery items at low prices.

“As ALDI continues to grow in Atlanta, we are pleased to open these new locations to help more customers stretch their dollars even further,” said Thom Behtz, Jefferson division vice president for ALDI. “As important as price is, there’s only one way to attract and keep shoppers: You have to have quality products.”

The Roswell store, located at 600 Mansell Road, showcases the “new look” of ALDI. With higher ceilings, improved natural lighting and environmentally friendly building materials – such as recycled materials and energy-saving refrigeration and light bulbs – the store will offer customers a simple and easy-to-navigate shopping experience.

Customers can expect to find more than 1,400 of the most frequently purchased items sold under ALDI exclusive brands for prices up to 50 percent less than traditional supermarkets. A model of efficiency, ALDI eliminates overhead costs by offering smart practices such as a cart rental system, through which shoppers insert a quarter to release a cart and receive the quarter back upon the cart’s return. Other cost-saving practices include a smaller store footprint, open carton displays and encouragement of customers to bring their own shopping bags.

ALDI also saves shoppers money by keeping stores open during prime shopping times. The new location will be open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday. They accept cash, debit and EBT cards.

Officials will cut the ribbon on the new Roswell store at 8:45 a.m. on Thursday, May 3. Customers are invited to sample ALDI exclusive brands, tour the new store and shop for their favorite grocery items. Additionally, guests can enter an on-site sweepstakes through Saturday, May 5 at all ALDI locations in Georgia for a chance to win an international trip for two, or one of five “Be a Grilling Sensation” prizes which include a brand new grill, accessories and ALDI gift certificate to help consumers kick off the summer grilling season.
