Aldi is spending $1.6 billion to implement the new design in 1,300 of its US stores, Bloomberg reports.
The German-owned grocery chain debuted the new design in October at a store in Richmond, Virginia, and it looks almost identical to Whole Foods' new cheaper chain of stores called 365 by Whole Foods.
The Aldi store has softer lighting than its older stores, as well as a larger fresh produce section, wider aisles, and electronic displays on the walls.
Here's what it looks like:
