Welcome

Award-winning discount food retailer, Aldi, is bringing forward a planning application to develop land on Dale Road, Matlock into a new Aldi food store.

Aldi has long wanted to expand its offer of amazing value and choice to the residents of Matlock, and this site on Dale Road presents an ideal location.

Aldi’s proposals would provide a bespoke and respectful Aldi food store at in a convenient location for residents of and visitors to Matlock.

By providing real affordable choice, a new Aldi food store in Matlock would help ease the impact of the current cost-of-living crisis. The new store would provide customers with better value products to help make their money go further.

Few residents of Matlock currently have access to a discount food retailer. The introduction of a new Aldi food store in Matlock would improve the immediate local retail offering, creating more competition and improving choice for the local community.

If approved, these plans would represent a significant economic investment into Matlock, creating 40 full-time jobs in-store, as well as further employment through construction and the supply chain.
