Aldi unveiled its completed regional headquarters and distribution center in Loxley, Alabama, which will serve as many as 100 stores across the Gulf Coast.

“At a time when inflation is putting pressure on American wallets, we believe our mission to save people money on the food and products they need is more important than ever,” said Heather Moore, Aldi divisional VP for the Loxley region.

“We are thrilled to see so much customer love for the 20 stores we’ve opened in the Gulf Coast area in the last year alone. Once they see the quality, selection and value Aldi offers, they keep coming back. That’s why we’re committed to providing our customers the lowest possible price, and the best possible value – that’s something that will never change.”

The 564,000-square-foot Loxley facility is equipped to service stores across LouisianaAlabamaMississippi and the Florida Panhandle. The 100 stores that will be supported by the Loxley facility represent an opportunity to reach more than 8 million customers.

Aldi is now operating 30 stores in the Gulf Coast, having opened 20 stores in the area last year alone. It plans to add another 13 stores in 2023.

“We are incredibly proud Aldi chose to lay down its roots in our Alabama community,” said Richard Teal, Loxley mayor.

“Our community is growing quickly, and we’re excited to be welcoming the expansion of Aldi alongside Loxley. Not only will this facility create hundreds of jobs for the hardworking members of our community, but it will also allow our residents and neighbors easy access to fresh food at low prices.”

Aldi has been No. 1 for price, according to the dunnhumby Retailer Preference Index Report for six years running.

The Loxley facility will feature roof-mounted solar panels, LED lighting, an environmentally-friendly refrigeration system and metal panel insulation.

The Loxley distribution center will create around 200 new jobs in the area with competitive wages and benefits. ALDI has already staffed 120 of these positions and plans to continue hiring. Those interested in learning more or applying can visit careers.aldi.us.
