ALDI will soon be opening a new store in Akron.
The grocery store chain says it will open its newest Greater Akron location on May 22.
The store is located at 1890 West Market St. in the former Essence Beauty Mart location, which moved next door into the former Pat Catan’s.
ALDI will open at 8:30 a.m. on the first day and the first 100 customers will receive a gift bag filled with ALDI-exclusive products and along with a gift card.
“At our new Akron ALDI store, shoppers will find that every decision we make, from our product selection to store layout, is to provide our customers with the best products at the lowest possible prices of any national grocer,” said Corey Stucker, regional vice president for ALDI, in a statement.
ALDI has an ambitious plan to open 800 stores nationwide by the end of 2028.
This will be the grocery chain’s fourth store in Akron.
