Residents across the county have been asked to suggest locations for new Aldi stores.

The UK’s fourth-largest supermarket wants people from Sussex and the rest of the UK to nominate places that could benefit from having an Aldi in the area.

Places with the most nominations will be considered by the company as future locations.

Residents who want to put their town forward to be considered should contact the supermarket by emailing NextNewStore@Aldi.co.uk.

They need to state their postcode and why they believe their area needs a new Aldi store.

Aldi is asking for these suggestions to be submitted by May 31.

The supermarket currently has over 1,000 stores in the UK, including 13 in Sussex.

Jonathan Neale, managing director of national real estate at Aldi UK, said: “We want to make high-quality food accessible to all, but there are still some areas that either don’t have an Aldi or have the potential for more stores.

“We’ve identified some key places where there is demand for more stores already, but now we are calling on the public to share their views. This will be used to help inform our property search over the coming years.”
