Aldi expands click and collect trial to three Peterborough stores

There are now seven stores in Cambridgeshire taken part and customers in the city will be able to click and collect at the supermarket’s stores at Brickburn Close Hampton, Flaxland, Bretton and Maskew Retail Park. Other stores in the Cambridgeshire region taking part include Wisbech, Chatteris, Huntingdon and Cambridge.

Customers can now order from a full range of groceries online from groceries.aldi.co.uk and then collect them, in pre-booked one-hour collection slots.

On arrival at dedicated click-and-collect points in the store car park, customers will be able to have their shopping brought to their cars by Aldi colleagues contact-free, in line with social distancing rules.

Aldi is set to extend its trial of click and collect to over 200 additional stores by Christmas.

Giles Hurley, Chief Executive Officer, Aldi UK and Ireland, said: “Aldi’s quality products and unbeatable prices have never been so in demand.

“Extending this trial is about providing thousands more of our existing customers with another convenient way to shop with us, while also making Aldi accessible for many others who may not have shopped with us before.”

“As well as click-and-collect, Aldi is also trialling a rapid delivery service in partnership with Deliveroo and has recently extended the trial to almost 130 stores across the UK.

“Customers living near selected stores can order from a range of around 400 Aldi products and have them delivered to their doorstep in as little as 20 minutes.”
