Aldi To Expand Oak Creek Distribution Center

Aldi will add more than 100,000 square feet onto its Oak Creek distribution center, 9342 S. 13th St.

Construction could begin this summer on the expansion, which includes about 40,000 square feet for dry goods storage, 63,000 feet for cold storage and about 3,100 square feet of office space.

The project will add to what is now a 500,000-square-foot facility on about 74 acres of land north of Ryan Road. The distribution center serves Aldi stores in Wisconsin and Lake County, Ill.

The Oak Creek Plan Commission gave the plans final approval in its meeting Tuesday.

The project will be Aldi's second in Oak Creek this year. The company reopened its store on 27th Street in February after completing renovations.
