We're looking into whether or not an Aldi grocery store may be coming to Harrisonburg after a deed was filed in court in Rockingham County. The document shows that a company called Aldi acquired the land that was for sale along Rt. 33 (East Market Street) near Spotswood Country Club

Sources confirmed to WHSV that this land's intended use is for a grocery store. About eight acres were sold here for a total of $4.9 million.

We checked online and found that Aldi LLC is connected to the grocery store chain which is actually based in Germany. I reached out to Aldi Friday afternoon to see if a store is planned for the Friendly City. A spokesperson for the company told me: "We aren't able to confirm that location at this time."

If the store is actually built, it wouldn't be the first Aldi in the Valley.

Aldi has stores in our area Winchester and Waynesboro --and also in Culpeper.
