Aldi gives UK suppliers a £1.6 billion boost

Aldi has revealed that it has invested an extra £1.6 billion with British suppliers since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.

This includes £125 million more spent with UK meat, poultry and dairy farmers as the supermarket sourced 100% of its core range of fresh meat, eggs, butter, milk and cream from British suppliers.

Giles Hurley, chief executive of Aldi UK, said: “We were the fastest-growing supermarket in the UK in 2021 and that has only been possible by working closely, over long periods, with hundreds of British suppliers.

“As we continue to grow, opening new stores across the UK, we are determined to ensure that the vast majority of our grocery products continue to come from British suppliers, just as they do now.”

Aldi has also reaffirmed its promise to prioritise UK suppliers as it works towards its commitment, made a year ago, to spend an additional £3.5 billion a year with British businesses by the end of 2025.
