ALDI Grand Opening in Lake Forest: Ribbon Cutting, Prizes, and Special Offers

Lake Forest, CA – October 24, 2024 – ALDI, one of America's fastest-growing grocery chains, is celebrating the grand opening of its newest location in Lake Forest at 23330 El Toro Road. The event will kick off with a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony at 8:15 a.m., followed by a day full of exciting offers and giveaways for the community. City Council Members will be attending the event!

Customers can expect significant savings and a chance to win a $500 ALDI Gift Card by participating in the in-store contest, which runs from October 24 to 27. Additionally, the first 100 shoppers through the doors on opening day will receive a Golden Ticket, potentially worth up to $100. Early arrivals will also be treated to free ALDI shopping totes, while supplies last.

ALDI is more than just about savings. As part of its commitment to the local community, ALDI will donate $1,000 to a nearby Feeding America affiliate to help combat food insecurity. The company is also dedicated to reducing food waste by ensuring unsellable, yet edible, products are donated to local organizations in need through the Feeding America network.

Known for its no-frills, efficient shopping experience, ALDI provides high-quality, private-label products at affordable prices, making grocery shopping simple and budget-friendly. The Lake Forest store features a streamlined layout designed to make shopping easy and quick, offering around 1,600 carefully selected items compared to the 20,000 found in traditional supermarkets.

As the holiday season approaches, ALDI is also offering a special Thanksgiving promotion. Shoppers can purchase a complete Thanksgiving meal for 10 people for less than $47, including a Butterball turkey, sides, and dessert. This pre-inflation pricing, lower than 2019 levels, gives customers a break amid rising grocery prices across the country.

ALDI’s Lake Forest opening is part of the company’s continued expansion across the U.S., with plans to open 800 stores over the next five years. By maintaining its focus on simplicity and efficiency, ALDI helps customers save up to 40% on groceries compared to traditional supermarkets, while maintaining its reputation for providing high-quality products at everyday low prices.
