The history of Aldi

Aldi’s origins take us back to Germany 1946, when brothers Karl and Theo Albrecht took over their mother’s grocery store in Schonnebeck, Essen. With Theo completing his apprenticeship in the store and Karl’s experience from working in a delicatessen, the duo set about to create the first discount store in the world. By 1950, no fewer than 13 stores in the Ruhr Valley belonged to them.

By 1960, the brothers jointly owned 300 shops, but a dispute over whether they should sell cigarettes or not resulted in the company splitting in two. The name Aldi was introduced to the German venture in 1962, and the company’s two parts became Aldi Nord (North) and Aldi Süd (South).

It might have been Aldi Nord that first opened abroad (in the Netherlands in 1973), but it was Aldi Süd that kicked off operations in the UK, with the first store opening in Stechford (Birmingham) on 5th April 1990.

Aiding in Aldi’s reputation is its support for British farmers, with the business prioritising British sourcing where possible to ensure high-quality, locally sourced goods.
