Aldi is calling on streets across the UK to enter a competition to win funding for the ultimate Jubilee bash.
The supermarket’s Jubilee Street Party Fund will see it give away a series of £500 Aldi vouchers to help communities up and down the country celebrate Her Majesty’s big day.
Aldi is to work with an African cashew nut company Cashew Coast to empower female factory workers and farmer communities in the Ivory Coast, as well as encourage more environmentally friendly nut production.
The company sources nuts directly from local farmers in the Ivory Coast and processes them, by employing women from nearby communities.
Aldi has revealed that its stores will be open as usual over the Jubilee Bank Holiday.
Over the Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend, normal opening hours will remain in place at Aldi’s more than 960 stores, meaning customers have time to pick up everything they need to enjoy the celebrations over the long weekend.
Aldi is removing plastic shrink wrap from its multipacks of its Corale baked beans in a bid to further reduce plastic waste.
The move will save 78 tonnes of single-use plastic from going to landfill each year, while still offering shoppers a multipack discount when they buy four tins.
Aldi has revealed its store opening times over the May Bank Holiday.
Over the May Bank Holiday weekend, over 860 stores in England and Wales will be open until 10pm on 30th April and 4pm on Sunday 1st May, to ensure everyone can pick up everything they need to enjoy the long weekend.
Aldi customers can now order this year’s Easter groceries via its Click & Collect service.
Easter collection slots are now available to book via groceries.aldi.co.uk, so shoppers can order from a vast range of groceries online and select a one-hour collection window between 14th and 16th April.
