Aldi looking to recruit Doncaster food and drink suppliers - here's how to get involved

The firm wants to accelerate its commitment to increase spending with British suppliers by £3.5bn a year by the end of 2025.

Suppliers based in South Yorkshire interested in working with the supermarket can visit aldi.co.uk/suppliers/becoming-a-supplier to find out more.

Whether it’s a brand-new business or a well-established one, Aldi is on the lookout for suppliers across a range of product categories, including food, drink and Specialbuys.

This uplift in British suppliers forms part of the supermarket’s commitment to increase the number of products it sources from the UK and buy British wherever possible.

Aldi’s entire core range of fresh meat, eggs, milk, butter and cream is already sourced from British suppliers, while more than 40% of fresh produce sold is also British.

The supermarket spent a total of £9 billion with UK companies last year as it opens at least one new store a week, increasing the number of opportunities for suppliers to provide products for its seasonal product ranges and Specialbuys, as well as permanent listings.

Giles Hurley, Chief Executive Officer, said: “We want to meet our customer’s demand for buying British, and by working with British suppliers we get to offer Great British quality products, and at unbeatable prices.

“We’re now on the lookout for more British suppliers to add to our current partnerships, helping to create even more jobs as well as new opportunities for these businesses.”
