ALDI does not provide free shopping bags, recycles heavily and looks to utilize energy saving equipment. We also provide damaged product to companies for refurbishment to send to third world countries. A number of initiatives are in the process of investigation.
Aldi has extensive programs in place to monitor and reduce our carbon footprint, including highly sophisticated fleet management systems for our transport department, regular power consumption checks and interventions (when necessary) at store level and extensive training to all staff regarding the importance of greener work methods.
