Aldi Sets Grand Opening Dates For First Las Vegas Stores
The Aldi banner will soon be flying in the Nevada desert.
The discount grocer will open its first two Las Vegas area stores on April 24 in Henderson and North Las Vegas. The Henderson store at 621 Marks St. will be located east of the famous Strip and adjacent to the Galleria at Sunset Mall. The North Las Vegas store will be located in a strip center at 2106 W. Craig Road. News of the store openings was reported by the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
A third location at 7150 S. Rainbow Road is scheduled to open in May.
The new Las Vegas stores are part of Aldi’s plan to open more than 225 stores this year as the grocer moves forward with the next phase of its five-year national growth strategy. The expansion will be the largest in a single year in the grocer’s 50-year history in the U.S.
According to Aldi, the new stores will open through a combination of organic growth and converting select Winn-Dixie and Harveys Supermarket stores to the Aldi format. In total, Aldi will convert approximately 220 Southeastern Grocers locations to the Aldi format through 2027.
News of the new Sin City stores follows four new Aldi store openings as March transitioned into April. On March 27, the company opened a new location in Slidell, La., at 3030 Pontchartrain Dr., the second Aldi store in the community.
On April 3, the Batavia, Ill.-based company welcomed three new stores: Lithia, Fla., at 16751 Fishhawk Blvd.; Owega, N.Y., at 1150 State Route 17C; and La Vergne, Tenn., at 5331 Murfreesboro Road. The stores are the first Aldi stores in each community.
