Aldi Food Store

The Project

Encon Associates were commissioned by Aldi as part of their framework agreement to provide landscape design consultancy for their new stores across the Midlands.  Our role is to produce landscape proposals to achieve planning consent for their roll out of new food stores.

The Project

A number of existing mature trees along the frontage were retained and integrated as part of the overall landscape design intended to provide ecological enhancement and a practical urban planting.

Appearance is high on Aldi’s agenda when building new stores and landscaping is a key part of creating an attractive development which is visually appealing to its customers.  Working closely with Stoas Architects from Birmingham, a planning application was submitted for the demolition of the existing garage on site and construction of a new 1,200m2 food store including landscape proposals produced by Encon Associates landscape architects.

Development Site Area: 0.65 hectares

Gross Floor Area: 13,000 sq ft

Contribution to Planning

Production of Landscape Proposals to meet the requirements of Rushcliffe Borough Council to achieve planning consent

Key Environmental Facts: Existing mature trees retained, new landscaping to provide ecological enhancement and visual amenity for the site

Want to gain environmental credits or need planning advice for your next project?

We have been delighted with the service from Encon Associates throughout and for their help in achieving a BREEAM Very Good rating on both phases of our Bishop Auckland retail park project.

The online IES TaP system meant I was able to keep a close eye on how things were progressing from start to finish – an excellent facility.

Finally, thanks for your own personal contribution and guidance which was invaluable – very much appreciated.  I’d have no hesitation in recommending Encon Associates and look forward to working with you on future projects.
