A new road, called ALDI Drive, will also be constructed to allow access to the store from Old Gick Road.<br \/>\nAccording to Bruce Persohn, ALDI South Windsor Division vice president, the plan is for the store to open before the end of 2020. <!--more--><br \/>\n\u201cWhen it comes to choosing store locations, we look at many factors,\u201d said Persohn. \u201cWe want the best sites that are closest to our shoppers and can support a high daily traffic volume. As the demand for ALDI grows, so do our real estate options. Bottom line: We want to be conveniently located for our shoppers, and the Saratoga Springs\/Wilton community was a natural fit.\u201d<br \/>\nThe new store will be about 12,000 square feet and will follow the streamlined layout that has made ALDI popular among consumers.<br \/>\n\u201cOur stores only have four or five aisles, providing a streamlined, efficient and simple shopping experience. A study from Kantar, commissioned by ALDI, shows that shopping at ALDI is at least 20 percent faster than shopping at Kroger or Walmart stores,\u201d said Persohn.<br \/>\nFirst founded in 1976, ALDI has opened nearly 2,000 stores across 36 states and is projected to be the third-largest grocery store in the United States by the end of 2022. Along with the streamlined shopping experience, ALDI is well-known for high-quality brands and products, many of which are ALDI exclusives, according to the company.<br \/>\nGround has not yet been broken on the 2.1-acre lot. Once open, it will employ 15 to 20 people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Rachel Phillips Saratoga County will soon have a another ALDI grocery story open for business.
