Lidl and Aldi Lead Fresh Dairy Price Cuts From Monday in Germany

Retailers cite falling raw‑material costs linked to a rise in milk production.

Overview

  • Lidl, Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd announced new reductions effective November 17 on butter, milk and cream, marking the fourth round of cuts since early September.
  • Retail prices drop by roughly 7–25% on affected items, with 250 g butter now about €1.29 and 1 L fresh milk about €0.95.
  • Edeka, Netto, Kaufland and other national chains said they will match or similarly reduce prices for comparable private‑label dairy products.
  • Aldi also introduced permanent reductions on more than 15 MILSANI items announced November 14, including Skyr 500 g lowered from €1.49 to €1.19.
  • Lidl’s latest list spans Milbona dairy and Vemondo vegan alternatives, while the German Farmers’ Association warns the intensifying price competition could harm milk producers.
