Aldi is a chain of supermarkets. It was founded by Anna Albrecht and her sons Karl and Theo, who expanded a small store into a chain of self-service, great value stores where people could pay for goods on account. As their business expanded across Germany, they settled on the name Aldi – short for Albrecht and Discount. The first UK Aldi store opened in 1990. Today, you’ll find our grocery stores all over the world.

Currently we have over 1000 stores, with our 1000th opening in 2023. We operate across 11 distinct regions – spanning from Scotland down to South Wales and South West England. We also have a large European and global presence.

Aldi sells a whole host of great value products. From award-winning fresh food, through to acclaimed beers, wines and spirits and everything in between. Our great offers and Specialbuy discounts mean there’s always something new to discover.

Yes they are! We have won numerous awards for the quality of our products, including our fresh produce, Specially Selected range, Mamia baby line and wine selection.

Aldi has a wide range of organic and gluten-free products. Our organic products range from bananas and apples through to prosecco and eggs. We also offer a range of gluten-free products including pasta, biscuits and frozen items. Learn more about our range and pick up tips on gluten-free diets.
