Buys Bottom Dollar locations
Aldi purchases all 66 Bottom Dollar supermarket locations, to include the real estate and the buildings, but not the inventory or the store fixtures. The purchase is part of an expansion plan that will add 650 stores nationwide by the end of 2018. Aldi spokeswoman Julie Ketay:
It’s premature to share any plans specific to the purchase of these assets. Aldi welcomes Bottom Dollar Food employees to consider applying for open positions.
