Focus Areas
Our Global Sustainability Strategy addresses challenges and opportunities which are most material for ALDI. We defined certain focus areas where our actions can impact sustainability for nature, people, and health.
Human Rights
Human Rights are an important dimension of ALDI’s Global Sustainability Strategy, since the way we operate, purchase goods, and the business partners we choose could impact human rights across our own operations and supply chains.

Climate
We are aware that our business activities have a significant impact on the climate and the environment. The ALDI SOUTH Group is working towards net-zero by reducing carbon emissions in our own operations and along our supply chains.

Agriculture
Agriculture is one of the biggest drivers of biodiversity loss and a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. At the ALDI SOUTH Group, our business is connected to many global food systems, and we have made environmental stewardship one of the cornerstones of our sustainability strategy.

Sustainable Products
We want to empower our customers to make sustainable, affordable choices in our stores. We plan to continually expand our sustainable product portfolio, using certification, focussing on sustainable sourcing and buying practices, and increasing the recyclability and reusability of our products.

Circularity
By moving from a throwaway culture to a circular economy, we can produce less waste. It allows us to use resources more efficiently, reduce the consumption of raw materials, and to recover waste by recycling. The ALDI SOUTH Group will take an end-to-end approach to sell more products that support a circular economy.

Sustainable Packaging
Packaging is an indispensable part of our everyday lives, helping us to deliver quality products to our customers. It keeps food fresh, makes it easier to handle, and prevents food waste. It is important to consider the way in which we buy, use, and dispose of packaging. The ALDI SOUTH Group is working towards more sustainable packaging in the areas of material reduction, recyclability, and recycled content.

Animal Welfare
Meat, dairy and eggs are some of the core products sold by the ALDI SOUTH Group, which is why we are committed to delivering better animal welfare standards across our markets.

Healthy Nutrition
A balanced diet from sustainable food systems is key to the long-term health of people and the planet. The ALDI SOUTH Group wants to make healthy nutrition simple, sustainable, and affordable.

Food Waste
Food waste has a huge impact on our environment. Globally, it contributes as much to greenhouse gas emissions as road transportation. The ALDI SOUTH Group has set ambitious goals to reduce food waste to improve food security, address climate change, and protect our natural environment.
