Aldi has confirmed it is set to open its 10th Buckinghamshire store next month.

The supermarket chain has announced its plans to move into premises previously occupied by Marks and Spencers in Kingston.

The chain says it will offer fresh British meat products with weekly offers as well as the award-winning 'Specially Selected' range.

Aldi's popular Specialbuys in the middle aisle will be available every Thursday and Sunday at the new store, which is located yards away from a huge Tesco Extra.

The new Milton Keynes store will be run by manager Nick Taylor, along with a team of 35 colleagues from the local community.

He will be joined by Team GB silver medallist Ryan Owens to celebrate the store opening by cutting the all-important ribbon on opening morning.

Aldi Store Manager Nick Taylor said: “We can’t wait to open the doors to the new store in Kingston.

"It’s set to be a special day and having Olympic hero Ryan Owens join us will make it a morning to remember.”

Cycling star Ryan Owens added: “I’m so excited to be opening Aldi’s new store; it will be great to chat to customers and a lovely way for me to thank Aldi for its support of Team GB.”

The new store is calling on local charities and food banks to register with Neighbourly, a community engagement platform that links businesses to charitable organisations in the local community. 

Local charities that register will be able to collect surplus food and perishable products, such as fruit, vegetables and baked goods, up to seven days a week.

Any charities in the area that would like to partner up with the new Aldi store should email aldi@neighbourly.com.

The new store will be open from 8am to 10pm Monday to Saturday, and 10am to 4pm on Sundays.

The doors will first open on Thursday, April 7 at 8am.
