Aldi is set to move into a unit on the Oldbury Green Retail Park in Oldbury town centre having been given the green light by Sandwell Council in 2023.
The budget chain has now applied for a licence to sell alcohol from its newest Oldbury supermarket ahead of its opening.
Aldi will be opening the new supermarket in the old Argos and Shoezone units – which have been combined and extended under the application approved by Sandwell Council’s planners. The unit formerly occupied by Argos has been empty since 2020 after moving to the nearby Sainsbury’s and Shoezone relocated to a different unit on the retail park in 2024 but the store has been threatened with closure after the firm said it had experienced “very challenging trading conditions” in the last 12 months.
