Overview
- Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd have announced the closure of their joint online shop, effective September 30, 2025, citing lack of profitability since its 2021 launch.
- The online shop, which primarily sold non-food items such as household appliances and multimedia products, will stop accepting orders after September 30, 2025.
- Approximately 80 employees will lose their jobs as a result of the closure, according to the company’s statement.
- Aldi's apps, websites, and other digital services like 'Aldi Talk,' 'Aldi Reisen,' and 'Aldi Foto' will remain operational and unaffected by this decision.
- The move aligns with Aldi's strategy to prioritize its core business of physical retail and streamline operations for greater efficiency.
