The Aldi store in Stevenage will close for refurbishment, the supermarket chain has confirmed.
Work is currently under way to create an extension of the store, with a L-shaped wraparound covering all of the western side of the store and half the northern side - away from Fairlands Way and towards Pets at Home.
The extension will generate 336sqm of gross internal floorspace.
On the eastern side, the entrance will be modernised and the trolley bay will be removed and replaced by a larger canopy.
Aldi has now confirmed that the Fairlands Way supermarket will close on August 31, so refurbishment works can be carried out.
A spokesperson for Aldi said: "When we reopen in October, the store will be in our new layout, which ensures more space for fresh, chilled and food-to-go ranges.
"It will be much brighter, with simpler layouts and wider aisles.
"We will keep the community updated on developments."
