ALDI Has Plans To Open New Location In Great Neck Plaza

GREAT NECK, NY — Aldi is planning to add a new location in Great Neck Plaza.

North Hempstead Town Councilwoman Christine Liu, who led the charge for major retailers in the community, announced the supermarket will join Great Neck Plaza as part of a downtown revitalization.

“During my 2023 campaign, residents in Great Neck and Lake Success repeatedly voiced their frustration overthe lack of a supermarket in the Plaza,” Liu said. “Once elected, I didn’t wait for businesses tocome to us - I went out and pursued them and my efforts have paid off for the residents and businesses in mycommunity.”

The councilwoman worked closely with ALDI’s leadership for months to solidify their commitment to the location. ALDI's delivery times became a sticking point with the village, leading Liu to convene a meeting with ALDI representatives and Great Neck Plaza officials and property landlord Kimco.

“I worked hard to bring everyone to the table, and through collaboration and dialogue, we reached a compromise that satisfied all parties and ensured the deal’s success.”
