There is great news for Hillsborough shoppers. A new ALDI grocery store is headed your way in 2022!

Back in November 2021, The News of Orange County reported that plans had been submitted to the the Hillsborough Board of Adjustment for the new store, which is located at N.C. 86 next to the Sheetz gas station.

On December 8, the board approved the plans and the company confirmed the new store to WRAL on Dec. 9.

Krysta Cearley, Salisbury division vice president at ALDI shared the following with WRAL when we reached out for confirmation about the new location: "Thanks for your interest in ALDI! We are excited to confirm we are planning to open a new ALDI store in Hillsborough, NC, next year, but do not have further details at this time. We will reach back out once we have more specific information to share."

Is there an Aldi near me?

This is the second Orange County ALDI location in the works. In July 2021, the store confirmed a new location is coming to Chapel Hill, NC in the Eastgate Crossing Shopping Center.

Back in February 2021, ALDI announced that the retailer will be opening approximately 100 new locations this year, expanding Curbside Grocery Pickup options and breaking ground on a new regional headquarters and distribution center.
