  • Aldi plans to open more than 180 new stores across 31 states by the end of 2026, bringing its U.S. total to nearly 2,800 locations, with a longer-term goal of reaching 3,200 stores by 2028.
  • The expansion will introduce Aldi to new markets like Portland, Maine, and Denver and Colorado Springs, Colorado, while also growing its presence in cities such as Phoenix and Las Vegas.
  • Alongside store growth, Aldi is investing in infrastructure and digital upgrades, including three new distribution centers and a redesigned website launching in early 2026.

Good news, Aldi shoppers! The discount grocer just announced plans to open more than 180 stores across 31 states by the end of 2026. This means, by the end of the year, Aldi will operate nearly 2,800 stores, with plans to reach 3,200 by the end of 2028.

"One in three U.S. households shopped at Aldi this past year, and in 2026 we’re focused on making it even easier for customers to shop our aisles first," said Atty McGrath, CEO of Aldi U.S., in a company announcement. "That means bringing Aldi to even more neighborhoods, upgrading our website, and planning additional distribution centers to keep our shelves stocked with the products our shoppers love."

While the exact locations haven't been announced yet, shoppers can expect the grocer to make its debut in Portland, Maine, and Denver and Colorado Springs, Colorado, along with more stories opening in Phoenix, Arizona, and Las Vegas, Nevada. Cities across the Southeast region will also see Aldi locations pop up, as the company converts close to 80 existing Southeastern Grocers locations into its stores.
