Aldi seeks to open Exmouth store

Aldi has announced it is seeking to open a new store in Exmouth.

The German supermarket chain, which already has a store on the outskirts of Topsham, is now searching for suitable sites.

The location should be able to accommodate a 20,000 sqft store with around 100 parking spaces, and be near a main road with good visibility and access.

Richard Thornton, Communications Director at Aldi UK, said: "We want to make our great value groceries accessible to all, and to do that we need more stores, particularly in towns and areas that don't have an Aldi already.

"The areas we've identified in our latest list are places where there is demand for stores and we are committed to continue investing until we can bring our quality products and unbeatable prices to as many people as possible."
