A Huntingdon supermarket has closed temporarily for the store to undergo a refit.  

Aldi, on Edison Bell Way, closed to customers yesterday (Wednesday August 28) and will unveil its new look next week.  

It will reopen following the refit next Thursday (September 5) at 8am.  

Officials for the popular supermarket chain say the store will have more space dedicated to fresh British meat and fish, as well as popular Lacura health and beauty products.  

There will also be award-winning beers, wines and spirits, its Mamia babycare products, and a new and improved ‘Food to Go’ section with fresh salads, sandwiches and sushi.  

Aldi added the format has been created to make shopping easier for customers and the store will now have more space and clearer signs.  

Fresh bread and cakes have been moved to the last aisle, preventing them getting squashed under customers’ shopping.  

The store will also have new, easy-to-browse freezers and the ‘Aisle of Aldi’ will offer Specialbuys every Thursday and Sunday.  

During the re-opening week, there will be a range of cycling accessories, including base layers for £19.99, LED bike lights for £12.99 and children’s helmets and pads for £8.99 each.      

The Huntingdon store employs 36 people.  

Manager Nathan Wilkinson said: “The store is looking fantastic, and we can’t wait to welcome our loyal customers back so they can see it for themselves.  

“We’re committed to making sure that the shopping experience each customer enjoys in our stores is on a par with the products and service they’re used to.”  

The store’s transformation is part of Aldi’s £600m investment into further improvements across its business in the UK.  

The changes are also based on feedback from more than 50,000 customers.  

Aldi also has stores in St Neots and St Ives.
