DAVID Cameron was today in Atherstone visiting Aldi's headquarters in Holly Lane after the announcement that the supermarket chain would be creating 35,000 new jobs.
The Prime Minister met with Aldi's Group Managing Directors in Atherstone at lunchtime to hear about the supermarket's plans to invest more than £600 million in UK expansion.
It will see Aldi more than double its employee numbers in the UK as it opens over 550 new stores between now and 2022. It includes plans to create one apprenticeship position, per store, per year.
Prime Minister David Cameron said: "Aldi's plans to create tens of thousands more jobs across the country are a vote of confidence in our long-term economic plan to back business, create more jobs and secure a brighter future for Britain.
"This news will mean more financial security for hardworking families and opportunities for young people who want to get on in life."
Matthew Barnes, Group Managing Director of Aldi UK, said: "Our expansion plans mean that we can accommodate growing shopper numbers, while ensuring that there is an Aldi store only a short drive away from people, no matter where they live in the country.
"We are opening our doors across the UK, making it even easier for people to shop and save with us."
