Aldi Horspath Store Remains Closed for Operational Reasons
Aldi has kept its Horspath Driftway supermarket in Oxford closed for two weeks, citing operational reasons while working with local environmental health officials.
An Aldi supermarket at the Horspath Driftway retail park in Oxford has remained closed for two weeks following an unexpected shutdown on October 27. The company initially expected the store to reopen by November 3, but a statement issued on November 10 confirmed the location remains shut.
Aldi attributed the closure to "operational reasons" but declined to provide further details. The Oxford City Council confirmed that its Environmental Health Team is currently working with the store, although the council did not specify the nature of the issue. Local reports have clarified that no police incident occurred on the day the store first closed.
