New Grocery Store Opens In Canton

CANTON, CT — Discount grocer ALDI has opened a new store in Canton. The store opening is part of the company's national expansion plan to be the third-largest grocer in the country by the end of 2022.

ALDI describes itself as offering "premium food at great prices," according to a statement.

The new store at 101 Albany Turnpike store opened Thursday and will be open daily from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

"We are dedicated to providing the communities we serve the best groceries at the lowest-possible prices, and we look forward to introducing Canton to their new neighborhood grocery store," Chris Daniels, South Windsor division vice president for ALDI, said in a statement.

ALDI said it purposefully designs its stores for simplicity and efficiency, integrating several new safety features in all its stores across the country earlier this year. The retailer has also remained focused on ensuring stores are stocked with the food and household essentials.
