PLANS for a multi-million-pound project to build a new Aldi store in Glasgow have been announced.
Formal consultations on proposals for a new £4.6 million store in the Broomhouse area of the city's East End have begun.
Located at Boghall Road, the store will serve Broomhouse, Baillieston and the surrounding area and would be the tenth Aldi store in Glasgow.
The development will create up to 35 local jobs within the store, as well as jobs in construction and the Aldi supply chain.

Once completed, the store will boast 95 parking bays, which include 76 standard spaces, eight parent and child, seven accessible and four electric vehicle spaces.
Local residents can now have their say on the proposals, both via a drop-in event and a live interactive chat session.
The drop-in event will be held on Wednesday, August 17 between 3pm and 8pm at the Mailcoach Restaurant in Broomhouse.
A live interactive chat session will also be held on Monday, August 22 between 5pm and 7pm and will be accessible via the project website.

An Aldi spokesperson said: “We are excited to be announcing our proposals for a new store in Broomhouse.
"Building on our nine existing stores in Glasgow, we remain committed to investing in the city and servicing local communities with our low-cost and high-quality products.
“An Aldi store would bring significant investment to the area, along with 35 new jobs, whilst supporting other local businesses through our investment in the Scottish food and drink sector.
“I would urge anyone with an interest in the proposals to attend one of our consultation events, either online or in person.”
