According to the official Aldi Grand Openings website, there are two new grocery stores opening on November 16, 2023 in our part of America. One is located at 3801 W Riverside Blvd. in Rockford, Illinois. This picture from September of 2023 shows the construction of the building was almost complete then.

The other location I saw that will have a grand opening on the same day is at 300 North Perryville Blvd. in Perryville, Missouri. This location taken by Google a year ago shows the land this new store was built on.

Aldi recently had 2 other Illinois grand openings. One in Bartonville, Illinois in September and another in Streamwood, Illinois in October.

New and more grocery options are always a good thing and new stores in Missouri and Illinois also mean new jobs for local residents.
