Aldi reaffirms low price commitment
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to significantly impact families beyond just social distancing and health, such as unemployment, pay cuts and economic strain, Aldi U.S. CEO Jason Hart released a letter to its customers to reaffirm its commitment to being a low-price leader.
Aldi stores are dominated by its own brands and at a discount, and as grocery prices have risen to its highest levels in 40 years, consumers might be showing concern. Hart’s letter looked to answer that. “We know you love Aldi for our great prices and those prices aren’t going anywhere, no matter what,” he wrote. “Access to affordable groceries is more important now than ever before. Our promise to you is that Aldi will continue to offer the lowest possible price every time you shop for groceries.”
