Aldi is set to extend its trial click-and-collect service to 200 additional stores before Christmas.
Aldi first launched its click and collect service to customers at a single store in the Midlands in September, before extending the trial to cover a total of 18 stores last month.
According to the German supermarket chain, shoppers can choose from a full range of grocery items online, then drive to their local store where their shopping is brought to their car by Aldi colleagues contact-free, in line with social distancing rules.
Giles Hurley, chief executive officer, Aldi UK and Ireland, said: “We know that more and more people want to buy high-quality food at unbeatable Aldi prices – particularly at the moment – and this trial has been hugely popular so far.
“By extending it to hundreds of new stores, we’re making Aldi accessible to thousands of shoppers who might never have visited one of our stores before.”
Customers can visit Aldi’s website to book a timeslot for collection in selected stores. Orders are picked and packed by colleagues in-store, then delivered to customers in dedicated parking bays when they arrive.
In September, Aldi announced it was investing £1.3 billion over the next two years, including in opening 100 new stores and upgrading a further 100 stores.
