The upcoming store in Times Square — the heart of New York City — comes during a time of ambitious growth for the retailer.

What happened

Aldi has announced plans for its entrance into Midtown Manhattan in New York City, according to a Thursday emailed press release. The store is expected to open next year.

Located in a new luxury apartment building, the store will span 25,000 square feet and reside on 42nd Street on the edge of Times Square.

Why it matters

The announcement comes a few months after Aldi made its debut in Nevada.

Aldi is firing on all cylinders as it works to reach its goal of opening more than 200 new stores across the United States by the end of 2025.

The discounter’s upcoming New York City store will be a scaled-down version of its typical store model, allowing for convenient shopping trips in a heavily trafficked area, Aldi said. The store will be located at 312 W. 43rd St. in The Ellery, a new luxury rental residential space that spans 32 stories.
