Almost half of the planned locations already exist under a different name.
Aldi plans to convert 220 supermarkets in total by 2027.
ALDI’s customers benefit in turn from some of thelowest prices around.
The record-breaking expansion dwarfs ALDI’s growth last year, when it opened nearly 120 new stores.
ALDI currently has about 2,400 locations, making it the third biggest grocery chain in the U.S.
