CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A few more budget-friendly grocery stores are popping up in the Charlotte region. Aldi this week outlined plans for its next three locations in the market.

The first of those, at 3201 E. Franklin Blvd. in Gastonia, is set to open at 8 a.m. on Thursday. A store at 18027 Laith Way in Cornelius is expected to open in November, followed by one at 7864 Charlotte Highway in Indian Land in December.

“As the Charlotte population grows, Aldi is also continuing to expand its local footprint to provide even more customers a shopping experience focused on convenience, value and safety,” said Krysta Cearley, Salisbury division vice president, in a statement emailed to CBJ. “Since opening our first Charlotte-area store in 1998, we’ve expanded to more than 30 stores, and we’re steadily paving the way for even more exciting growth in the future.”
