Construction on a new Aldi Grocery Store in Hastings got underway this past week as  equipment was moved in to begin work on the new discount grocery chain.

The store location in Hastings is west state street and cook road.

Aldi has more than 1,500 stores across 34 state including Michigan.

Like Trader joe's, Aldi's offers mainly its own private-label brands.

Just a short distance west construction on a new Family Dollar Tree seems to be moving along nicely.

And no additional information on what will be developed at a former used car center at the junction of west M-37/M-43 near Tractor Supply.
