Two new locations are opening July 31, with more coming soon.
One, a new building, is opening in Port Orange as part of a new shopping center. The other, in St. Cloud, is a converted Winn-Dixie.
The no-frills German grocery chain bought the parent company of Winn-Dixie and Harvey’s in 2024 to convert them to smaller Aldi locations. They sold most of them back this year, but they’re still moving forward with the conversions that were already in progress, along with launching new stores.
Aldi locations in Odessa, Crawfordville, Jensen Beach, and Westlake opened earlier this month, in addition to the 22 other Aldi locations that have already opened in Florida this year. There are at least 16 more coming soon, according to the company’s website and news reports.
Aldi plans to open 225 new store locations in the United States in 2025, the most they’ve ever opened in a single year, and 800 by the end of 2028.

What is Aldi?
Aldi is an international chain of no-frills grocery stores with no coupons and few, if any, big-name brand products.
Unlike Winn-Dixie, Aldi does not offer a meat counter, a deli, a pharmacy, a bakery, or a liquor store. There are no elaborate displays, no overhead music, a much smaller selection with few duplicates of item brands, lots of house brands, and fewer open hours. The goal of all of these is to keep prices low, the company says.
You pay a quarter to get a shopping cart (you get it back when you return the cart), and you bag your own groceries with empty boxes from the store, bags you bought there or containers from home.
There is a double-your-money-back “Twice is Nice” guarantee on its store brand products, and the chain regularly offers “FINDS,” limited-time offers that change weekly or seasonally, and other discounted deals. The company does not offer a membership program.
The “Aisle of Shame” is Aldi fans’ nickname for the aisles of limited-supply deals in each location.
The Aldi chain was founded by Karl and Theo Albrecht in 1946 (Aldi is an abbreviated form of “Albrecht Diskont”). After the brothers got into an argument over whether the stores should sell cigarettes, in 1960 they split the company into Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd, which both operate stores internationally in different regions. U.S. stores are operated by Aldi Süd. Aldi Nord also owns Trader Joe’s.
Aldi acquired Southeastern Grocers Inc (SEG), the parent company of Winn-Dixie and Harveys Supermarkets, and announced an ambitious five-year, $9 billion plan to add 800 stores nationwide through new stores and store conversions. In less than a year, it turned around and sold most of them to a consortium of private investors led by SEG president Anthony Hucker, but kept the ones where conversion plans were underway.
