We’re excited to share that Aldi is now officially open at Sierra Plaza in Fontana, California! The store celebrated its grand opening on April 10, with a strong community turnout and a ribbon cutting ceremony joined by the City of Fontana.

Please join us in congratulating Aldi on their newest location—a fantastic addition to the community and a major milestone for Sierra Plaza.

As the new anchor tenant, Aldi brings a bright, modern energy to a center that had been without a grocery operator since Stater Bros. closed nearly a year ago. Located directly across from Kaiser Permanente Fontana, the store adds convenience, renewed foot traffic, and vibrancy to the area.

Since taking on management of the center in January 2023, Athena Property Management has worked closely with ownership to enhance the property’s overall curb appeal and functionality. In preparation for Aldi’s opening, we implemented a series of upgrades, including:

  • A brand-new pylon sign inspired by Aldi’s fresh design
  • Roof improvements and full parking lot resealing
  • LED lighting throughout the center
  • Updated landscaping to improve visibility and aesthetics

We’re incredibly grateful to the amazing team that helped bring this project to life. Alongside Jonathan Barg, we’d like to thank: Matthew Baca at Aldi, Dan Samulski at Newmark and Jason Gordon at Epsteen & Associates, Brian Ruiz with AGI General Contracting, Sean Unsell with RDC, Connie O’Conner and the team at Signs and Services, Craig Sherman with Oaks Spring Landscaping, for their partnership and support, as well as our very own Thong Van, who helped oversee the entire project for Athena Property Management. And of course, a big thank you to the City of Fontana for their continued support throughout the process and for helping us celebrate on opening day.

With a tenant mix that includes Bank of America, Dollar Tree, Del Taco, and several service-oriented businesses such as a dentist, nail salon, and local Mexican restaurant, Sierra Plaza continues to serve the community’s everyday needs. Aldi’s addition not only strengthens the lineup but also increases foot traffic and visibility for all tenants. At Athena, we take pride in supporting both our clients and the communities their centers serve. Congratulations again to Aldi—we’re thrilled to welcome them to Sierra Plaza and to be part of this exciting new chapter!
