Aldi opens 26th Dublin store in Cabra creating 30 new Jobs

Aldi Ireland officially opened their 26th Dublin store in Cabra today, securing 30 permanent jobs for the area.

The new branch is part of a €73 million investment in 11 new stores in the capital over the next five years.

The new stores will see the creation of 350 full-time permanent jobs and 550 construction jobs over the period.

The spacious new 1,219-square-metre store features Aldi’s award-winning Project Fresh layout and features wide aisles and hi-spec fixtures and fittings.

Aldi noted that shoppers will be able to make use of 66 car-parking spaces and four electric vehicle-charging spaces.

The building will be powered by 100% green electricity and feature solar panels on the roof that will power items such as energy saving lights and Aldi’s new chiller fridges.

Speaking at the Cabra store opening, manager Jamie Stephens said: “This new €2.8 million store in Cabra is the latest step in ALDI’s expansion programme and I’m delighted to open our 26th store in Dublin today. This new store, and the 30 new jobs created, will support our ambition to deliver value to the people of Ireland at the locations most convenient to them.

“As a leading retailer in Ireland, we are very conscious of the current challenges facing consumers and businesses. The cost-of-living crisis is impacting every household and we know what it means for our customers. Working alongside our strong network of local suppliers, we will continue to work hard, mindful of the challenges facing our customers and supporting them where we can.”
