Aldi implements traffic light system for store access
Aldi is introducing a new automated traffic light system at the entrance to its stores to help control the number of customers going in and out during the covid-19 crisis.
The technology is being rolled out in stores across the UK following a successful trial. The system will run alongside the supermarket’s current Covid-19 safety measures to ensure that customers practise social distancing.
Richard Thornton, communications director at Aldi said: “The protection and safety of our customers and employees is our top priority and this new system is an accurate and effective way to allow us to control customer numbers in stores.
“The system’s trial was well received by our customers and we will be gradually rolling this new social distancing measure out nationwide from this week.”
