Pictures: Aldi opens brand new store in Netherfield

Aldi opened its brand new store in Netherfield to customers with ParalympicsGB athletics hero Richard Whitehead cutting the all-important red ribbon alongside residents from local care home, Rivendell View.

The Morado Way store is the new Aldi to open in and around Netherfield and will be run by Store Manager Stuart Levick, along with a team of 38 colleagues from the local community. In a welcome boost to the regional economy, 38 jobs have been created as a result of the new store.

ParalympicsGB gold medallist Richard Whitehead gave away complimentary bags of fresh fruit and vegetables from Aldi’s famous Super 6 range to the first 30 customers in the queue, and is set to deliver an inspirational virtual assembly for pupils at Netherfield Primary School after the summer break as part of the supermarket’s initiative, Get Set to Eat Fresh – which has already inspired over two million school children aged 5-14 years to learn more about the benefits of cooking fresh, healthy food with their families.

“I’m also thrilled that we are able to support Netherfield Primary School through our partnership with ParalympicsGB.”

ParalympicsGB star Richard Whitehead added: “I’ve had a fantastic time opening the new Aldi this morning. It was an honour to officially open the store and welcome customers inside for the first time.

“I am looking forward to speaking with the children at Netherfield Primary School about the importance of eating healthily and how it can be fun to plan and prepare meals as a family. Hopefully, I will inspire the pupils to keep active and try different sports.”

The new Aldi store offers large chillers and freezers dedicated to fresh, British meat products, a ‘Food to Go’ section at the front of the store, and an exclusive section full of Health & Beauty products.

Netherfield customers can also take a walk down the ‘Aisle of Aldi’, where they will find legendary Specialbuys which are available every Thursday and Sunday.
