Intention to temporarily lease a plot of land located on Stormhoek near no. 37 in Zaandam

Party is the only serious candidate

Aldi Vastgoed B.V.owns a supermarket on the Westzanerdijk in Zaandam.This property is in poor condition and urgently needs to be renovated.The municipality is developing a vision for the transformation of the Aris van Broekweg and environment, where the current supermarket falls in, and wants to investigate whether the location on Westzanerdijk is the most desirable location in this area in the future and/or whether the realization of a combined building.The parties have agreed that the Aldi will be temporarily located in Zuiderhout Noord on Stormhoek. The buildings with land at Stormhoek 37 and 41-47 in Zaandam will be included in a redevelopment in the future.Until then, these will be temporarily managed. If the land would not be used for the temporary accommodation of the Aldi, it will continue to function as a parking area for the users of the buildings on the Stormhoek and the site will not be sold/rented until there is more clarity about the redevelopment. Aldi Real Vastgoed B.V.is therefore the only serious candidate.
