New ALDI Grocery Store To Open In Haymarket This Week

HAYMARKET, VA — A new grocery store is coming to western Prince William County. This week, a new ALDI location plans to open its doors in Haymarket. The store is located at 6701 Lea Berry Way.

The new Haymarket location is part of ALDI's plan to open approximately 100 stores in 2021. In total, the retailer operates more than 2,000 grocery stores across the country.

Jeff Baehr is the Frederick regional vice president for ALDI. "We are excited to open our first ALDI location in Haymarket. What local shoppers will notice is high-quality, fresh foods and low prices in every aisle of the store, every day,” Baehr said. "We offer a convenient shopping experience with affordable award-winning, sustainable and on-trend goods and look forward to serving Haymarket customers for many years to come."

On average, ALDI stores use about 12,000 square feet, the company said. The grocer says their smaller size makes their stores more efficient and easier to navigate when compared to traditional grocery stores.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new store will begin at 7:50 a.m. on Thursday, Dec. 9. After that, the store will be open on a daily basis from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Other ALDI locations can be found on Portsmouth Road and Liberia Avenue in Manassas, or in Woodbridge on Smoketown Road or Gordon Boulevard.

ALDI requires face masks for unvaccinated customers. The grocery chain also said that unvaccinated customers and employees would be required to continue to practice social distancing to protect themselves and others.
