Dear Reader, ALDI1 can look back on more than a hundred years of history as a retailer. We act responsibly and reliably, and we are proud of this. Today, ALDI North and ALDI SOUTH are two of the most successful retailers worldwide. With product ranges of between 1,200 and 1,500 core items and 30 to 90 weekly rotating special buys, we reach millions of customers throughout Europe, USA, and Australia. Our key business principle is simplicity: We put customers at the very centre of all of our decisions, and develop simple solutions for everyday needs. We strongly believe in the need to act responsibly in order to maintain our competitive ability, our appeal as an employer, and our value proposition in the long term. For years, ALDI North and ALDI SOUTH have been actively promoting the development of sustainable social and ecological standards in their production countries. We strive to develop efficient and sustainable solutions with a focus on our impact. However, complex and multi-faceted issues cannot be solved by one single company. Only together can we achieve synergies and trigger transformation. For this reason, both ALDI North and ALDI SOUTH committed to the goals of the Detox campaign in 2015. This campaign, which was brought to life by the environmental organisation Greenpeace, strives to reduce the negative impacts on people and the environment caused by the use of hazardous chemicals in textile and footwear production.
