Reading the figures

The 152 stores are a record drawn from Foursquare Open Places, not a count published by the brand — this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish.

The reach indicators — coverage, index by region — are robust to that bias: they measure a distance and a population, which a location described twice does not move. Recorded .

Frequently asked questions about Aldi in Italy

Tout ce que vous devez savoir sur nos solutions.

How many stores does Aldi have in Italy?

The record of 23 August 2026 identifies 152 Aldi stores in Italy, across 6 regions. This is a record, not an official count: this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish. The figure serves to compare networks rather than to count stores.

What share of Italy does Aldi reach?

17.5 % of the population lives within 5 kilometres of an Aldi, and 28 % within 10 kilometres. Coverage counts each population cell once, however many locations reach it, which makes it insensitive to the double-counting that affects raw location totals.

Is Aldi denser in Italy or in France?

Per 100,000 inhabitants, Aldi has 0.26 stores in Italy against 2.58 in France — a density 90 % lower. Both records come from the same source and the same method, which is the condition for the gap to mean anything.
