Aldi

The German budget supermarket is a growing competitor among British supermarkets.

Rother councillors have given the green light to a new Aldi store in Rye, which currently has just one supermarket.

Jempson's, which operates Rye's only existing large supermarket, has opposed the planned Aldi store.

Aldi wants to build a supermarket on a green space used by a local rugby club for youth training.

The industry data suggests that despite Asda embarking on a turnaround, it has been losing ground to rivals.

Aldi is asking residents to share their feedback on the proposal for a new store.

New locations include Southam in Warwickshire, Hastings in Sussex, and Amersham in Buckinghamshire.
