ALDI MAKES IT EVEN EASIER FOR CUSTOMERS TO BUY BRITISH 

26 January, 2024

Aldi has introduced a ‘Best of British’ section to its website in a bid to help shoppers support British businesses.

The UK’s fourth-largest supermarket’s new dedicated webpage includes a wide selection of groceries, ranging from meat to dairy products and everyday essentials, and can be found at groceries.aldi.co.uk.

Last year, over 80% of Aldi’s sales came from British suppliers, with the supermarket being the market leader in sales of fresh British fruit and veg.

Aldi works with around 5,000 suppliers across the UK and has been ranked as the best supermarket for conducting relationships fairly and in good faith for a record 10 years in the GSCOP annual survey.

Julie Ashfield, Managing Director of Buying at Aldi UK, said: “Our Best of British webpage aims to give our customers the chance to navigate British products more easily whilst supporting the thousands of local suppliers that we work with.

“We are proud to champion so many British suppliers and they are at the heart of our success, allowing us to offer our customers great British quality at the best possible prices.”

ALDI ACCELERATES LONDON EXPANSION WITH £40M INVESTMENT IN EIGHT NEW STORES

20 April, 2026

Aldi is expanding in London with eight new stores this year, bringing hundreds of new jobs and more affordable food options to communities lacking discount retailers.

The £40m expansion targets areas in the capital and Greater London, where many communities still rely on higher-priced convenience stores or traditional full-price supermarkets for their weekly shop.

New stores are planned for Hanworth (Twickenham Road), Willesden (High Road), Watford, Marble Arch, Hoxton, Orpington West, Epsom and Stepney Green. Existing Aldi stores in Enfield and Kilburn will also undergo refurbishments in 2026.

Last year, the UK’s biggest discounter opened new stores inside the M25, including Wimbledon, Fulham Broadway, Shoreditch, Caterham, Uxbridge, Old Kent Road and Kentish Town, alongside an extension in Colindale, helping bring its award-winning products and low prices to even more Londoners.

Jonathan Neale, Managing Director of National Real Estate at Aldi UK, said: “We know household budgets are still under pressure, and too many Londoners don’t have an Aldi within easy reach. These new stores will bring our unbeatable value to more families while creating around 200 new jobs across the capital.”

The expansion forms part of Aldi’s wider investment in Britain, with the supermarket set to invest over £370 million in opening new stores across the country this year.

Aldi was named the UK’s cheapest supermarket by consumer champion Which? for the fifth consecutive year. In the monthly Which? analysis of 89 popular branded and own-brand products, Aldi also started the year strongly, being named Which? Cheapest Supermarket for January, February and March 2026.
