An Aldi supermarket is set to be built in Glasgow’s East End after plans were given the go ahead.
The store will cater for the “residents of Broomhouse which is poorly served by convenient retail choice”, Aldi has said.They also said the plan would improve the appearance of the area, which is currently undeveloped grassland, and bring more jobs.
Objectors also believe the new supermarket will have a negative impact on residents, through noise and light pollution and potentially youths causing nuisance in the car park. Cllr Imran Alam, Labour, said the proposal is “very good” and would “serve well” nearby housing estates. “Aldi is going to commit a lot of money into the development of this store,” he said. “It’s a much-needed investment.”
