Aldi announced it will open Jan. 22 in the Cedar Hills Shopping Center in West Jacksonville.
The German discount grocery at 3538 Blanding Blvd. is scheduled to open after a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 8:45 a.m.
The first 200 customers will receive a gift bag of Aldi products and a gift card, the company said in a Jan. 14 news release.
The store will be open daily from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The Cedar Hills location is one of the 13 former Southeastern Grocers stores that Aldi bought in Northeast Florida among the 220 SEG Winn-Dixie and Harveys Supermarket grocery stores it acquired for conversion.
Plans show the 60,861-square-foot Winn-Dixie was separated into a 25,786-square-foot Aldi with a residual 35,075 square feet of space for future use.
Aldi uses less space than traditional markets because of its streamlined layout and by not offering services such as pharmacies; bakeries; meat, deli and seafood counter service; floral products; or money orders, for example.
The Blanding Boulevard store brings Aldi one step closer to its goal of having 3,200 stores by the end of 2028.
