ALDI Stores Limited has submitted an application to Dudley Council’s licensing authority for a premises licence to sell alcohol at its store in Lower Gornal. The application covers the Aldi branch at Zoar Street, Lower Gornal, Dudley, DY3 2PA.
If approved, the licence would permit the sale of alcohol for takeaway between 6am and midnight, seven days a week. The request is specifically for off-sales, meaning any alcohol purchased would be consumed away from the premises, not in a bar, restaurant, or other on-site drinking area.

The application has been lodged with the council’s licensing authority and is now open for public scrutiny. The notice can be viewed on the Public Notice Portal at publicnoticeportal.uk, which carries statutory public notices published in local newspapers and is described as the fastest and most effective way of finding out what is happening in your neighbourhood.
