Aldi is to upgrade its Harrogate store as part of a nationwide improvement programme.

The retailer’s sole supermarket in Harrogate is located in Oak Beck Road, to the north-west of the town. It opened in 2016.

Today, Aldi announced some 25 stores were to be upgraded this summer in a £300million programme for 2026.

The move comes as Aldi is also extending its store in Fulford as well at Yarm and other sites across the country.

A spokesperson told the Press they did not at this stage have any details specifically concerning the Harrogate store.

But they added: “Changes will vary by location but will include creating more space to shop alongside the introduction of more sustainable features, such as energy-efficient fridge doors and natural refrigerants to help reduce carbon emissions.

“Selected stores will also benefit from upgraded Bakery, Health & Beauty and fresh food areas to further enhance the shopping experience for customers.”

This latest upgrade is in addition to Aldi’s wider growth plans, which include a £370 million investment in opening new stores.

A £6million Aldi is set to open in Norton this autumn.

Aldi has also submitted a planning application with North Yorkshire Council for a store in Eastfield, Scarborough.
