Aldi considers Albany supermarket

Albany Advertiser

Aldi has revealed it is considering a store in Albany as it continues to expand plans for its supermarket chain across regional WA.

A company spokeswoman confirmed to the Albany Advertiser this week the German retail giant had an interest in Albany.

Last week, Aldi purchased a block of land in the Bunbury CBD and has already filed plans with the City of Bunbury to build a supermarket on the 10,373sqm block.

Aldi has operated on the east coast since 2001 and recently expanded into WA, with plans for dozens of WA stores, including confirmed sites in Australind, Busselton and Bunbury.

The spokeswoman said Albany was also under consideration.

"We have an interest in Albany and recognise its potential as part of our long-term expansion plans," she said.

"We have not committed to developing a store in the area at this stage, but will update the community as our plans progress.

"Aldi Australia is eager to bring our unique shopping experience to more West Australians, offering high-quality products at permanently low prices."
