The Aldi grocery store that’s being built on the east side of Springfield is on track to open this fall.
“Our new store is still on track to open this fall,” said Laura Bauer, regional vice president for Aldi.
The store is being built at the intersections of East Main Street, Fourth Avenue and Maplewood Avenue, at the site of a former parking lot next to the UEC Theatres and across from Dollar Tree.
Officials initially said in April the store was expected to open this summer.

Construction crews with Dalo Construction Inc. started working on the store in November 2025.
Clark County commissioners approved an annexation petition in March 2025 from Aldi Inc. on behalf of United Entertainment Corporation for the 2.461 acres in Springfield Twp. to Springfield on Maplewood Avenue.
Aldi Inc. bought the property from United Entertainment Corp for $975,000 in August 2025, according to the Clark County Auditor’s website.
There is an Aldi grocery store in Springfield at 2091 N. Bechtle Ave. and a distribution center for the grocery chain at 4400 S. Charleston Pike.
Bauer added they don’t have any other specific information about the store to share yet, including an exact opening date.
