Aldi debuts two redesigned suburban stores

Aldi will hold ribbon cutting ceremonies at redesigned stores in Hoffman Estates and Prospect Heights.

The Hoffman Estates Aldi store, 375 W. Higgins Road, will hold a ribbon cutting at 8:25 a.m. Friday, followed by its popular Golden Ticket giveaway offering gift cards to the first 100 customers. Shoppers can also sample Aldi-exclusive brand foods and enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win a year's supply of Aldi produce.

A similar ceremony will be held at the Prospect Heights store, 1432 E. Rand Road, at 8:25 a.m. July 18. It will also be followed by the Golden Ticket giveaway offering gift cards to the first 100 customers, and shoppers can also sample Aldi-exclusive brand foods and enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win a year's supply of Aldi produce.

Both stores are part of the $1.9 billion Aldi investment to remodel and expand more than 1,300 stores nationwide by the end of 2020. Locally, Aldi is investing $180 million to update more than 130 stores in Chicago and the suburbs.
