UNITED KINGDOM - Aldi is one such retailer that continues to drive growth no matter what it does. Over the last few months alone, it has racked up headlines underscoring its aggressive expansion. Now, the retailer plans to invest another $1.6 billion (£1.3 billion) over the next years across its U.K. market.

The founding principle of our UK business back in 1990 was to offer a carefully-selected range of great quality products at the lowest prices. Whilst we’re continuing to innovate to give customers an even better experience and greater convenience, our core philosophy remains unchanged.”

The investment will be chiefly in new and upgraded stores, distribution centers, and additional innovations across the business, the press release went on to note.
