Discount market Aldi opened September 1 in West Hills. The store is located at 22741 W. Victory Blvd. at Fallbrook, in the old OSH store. Aldi offers a range of fresh food and easy-to-prepare meals at low prices. Many of their offerings are private labeled under their own brand. “Our stores are designed to make grocery shopping smarter, faster and easier, and we’ve been voted the price leader for five years running,” said Tom Cindel, Group Director of Operations and Statistics. One way the chain keeps prices low is that shoppers deposit a quarter to unlock a shopping cart, and get the money back when they return the cart. Aldi doesn’t have to hire employees to retrieve loose carts. The new store will employ approximately 15 staff.
