Fife Aldi store offers home deliveries in 20 minutes

Shoppers in St Andrews can now have their favourite Aldi products delivered to their door in as little as 20 minutes as part of a new partnership with Deliveroo.

The St Andrews Aldi store is amongst the first in Scotland to trial the new service, which will offer local residents a selection of almost 400 Aldi products at their fingertips via the Deliveroo app.

This will include a range of essential items, such as bread, milk and fresh produce, which will be picked and packed by Aldi colleagues for delivery by Deliveroo’s network of riders.

The new on-demand service has been introduced to offer customers greater flexibility and access to affordable Aldi groceries.

The trial was initially launched at eight stores in England in May, and is now being extended to almost 130 stores across the UK, including in Glasgow, Aberdeen, and Edinburgh.

Richard Thornton, communications director at Aldi UK, said: “The new trial with Deliveroo will provide more customers in St Andrews with access to great quality food at Aldi’s unbeatable prices.”

Mr Thornton continued: “This is an exciting venture for Aldi which provides a new way to serve our customers during these challenging times.”
