Aldi, the popular German supermarket chain, has finally listened to its customers’ demands and partnered with DoorDash to offer grocery delivery services in Australia.
This move is a game-changer for Aussie shoppers, especially those who have been looking for a more convenient way to shop during the Covid-19 pandemic.
How it Works
To use the new service, customers will need to download the DoorDash app and search for “Aldi”.
They can then add items to their cart and choose from various delivery options, including on-demand or scheduled delivery windows.
The partnership is currently in a trial phase in Canberra, but it’s expected to roll out across the country soon, making it available to 85% of Australian households.
Saving Money at Checkout
According to Aldi Australia’s group buying director, Simon Padovani-Ginies, the partnership will help customers save money at checkout.
“Our customers have been asking for us to go online for quite some time now, as there are times when you simply can’t get to a grocery store,” he said.
“By offering our products online, we can provide more affordable grocery options and help our customers save money.”
What to Expect
Aldi customers can expect to have access to the full range of products, including over 1800 items, spanning fresh produce, meat, seafood, and more.
While prices may vary slightly compared to shopping in-store, Aldi is committed to offering the cheapest products available.
“It’s our intention to make sure that we are the most affordable alternative, whether that’s bricks and mortar or buying online,” said Padovani-Ginies.
A New Era for Aussie Shopping
The partnership between Aldi and DoorDash marks a significant shift in the way Aussies shop for groceries.
With the rise of online shopping, it’s no surprise that Aldi has decided to meet customer demand and offer a more convenient way to shop.
As the service rolls out across the country, Aussie shoppers can expect to enjoy a more streamlined and affordable shopping experience.
What’s Next?
As the trial phase continues in Canberra, Aldi is monitoring customer feedback and sentiment to ensure a smooth rollout across the country.
With plans to make the service available to 85% of Australian households, it’s clear that Aldi is committed to making online shopping a staple of its business model.
