Aldi announces major change as supermarket launches brand new delivery service
The pilot offers about 2,000 products through the Deliveroo app and could expand to more UK locations in early 2027.
Aldi launched an on-demand grocery delivery pilot with Deliveroo today, enabling customers near eight participating stores to order around 2,000 products for doorstep delivery using the Deliveroo app.
Deliveroo riders collect and pack items directly from Aldi stores, using the Deliveroo rider app to scan products before completing purchases with a prepaid Rider Card.
Julie Ashfield, Aldi chief commercial officer, said "launching this service with Deliveroo is a great opportunity," while Rob Harris, Deliveroo Chief Revenue Officer, stated, "We are excited to welcome Aldi."
Participating locations span Ashford, Dover, Norwich, Ipswich, Letchworth Garden City, Margate, Strood, and Tamworth, offering fresh produce, meat, seafood, dairy, bread, and household essentials.
Aldi plans to expand the service to additional locations in early 2027 as part of a larger nationwide rollout following the initial eight-store pilot phase.
