Shopping Centers Today: Aldi one of six ‘Top of the World’ retailers


February 1, 2016

In the cover story of the January 2016 edition of Shopping Centers Today, Steve McLinden highlights his top six retailers who have mastered international expansion and show no signs of slowing down.  As written by McLinden, there are some retailers, including Aldi, “that have consistently conquered foreign markets over the years, usually on the strength of clear brand identification, strong local partnerships, good old-fashioned homework and, sometimes, counterintuitive thinking.”  The grocery chain based in Germany has 1,400 stores in the U.S. and could add an additional 600 to that count by 2018.
