ALDI<\/strong> has continued its rapid expansion in the U.S.\u2019 Gulf Coast states with the opening of its latest regional headquarters and distribution center in Loxley, Ala. The location will be used to serve up to 100 stores<\/a> in several southern states, including Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi and Florida, while reaching more than 8 million customers.<\/p>\n

For ALDI, the Loxley location marks its 26th regional headquarters and distribution center in the Southern U.S. The new facility is expected to create approximately 200 new jobs in the area.<\/p>\n

The retailer already operates 30 stores in the Gulf Coast region of the U.S. In 2022, the grocery brand opened 20 locations and has plans to add another 13 this year.<\/p>\n

ALDI’s first distribution center with cross-docking services<\/h2>\n

ALDI tapped A M King<\/strong> to design, build and provide property consulting for the 564,000-square-foot facility. The building features 216,781 square feet of dry storage, cold storage at varying temperatures, inbound\/outbound docks and 24,679 square feet of Class A office space.<\/p>\n

A M King designed the facility with sustainability in mind, incorporating several efficient design elements. The building is thermally tight and features roof-mounted solar panels, LED lighting, an environmentally-friendly refrigeration system and metal panel insulation. The Loxley location is also the first ALDI distribution center to use cross-docking services.<\/p>\n

Situated on a 150-acre site at 30800 County Road 49, north of Interstate 10, the property is 25 miles from the coastal city of Gulf Shores, Ala. The regional headquarters is also located between Mobile, Ala. and Pensacola, Fla.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
