store information

Can you please tell me where my nearest ALDI store is located?
Please use our store locator to search for all information on ALDI store addresses.

 

Why don’t ALDI stores provide store phone numbers?
To streamline our operations we want to engage with you personally. Please visit your local store with any questions you might have. To find your local store please click here.

 

Can you please tell me what hours your stores are open?
Please visit our store locator webpage for all information on opening hours.

 

When will an ALDI store open near my home?
ALDI's property team is constantly on the lookout for new store locations. Once we have confirmed a new site, we advertise our new store openings on this website, in local newspapers and on-site signage.

 

Why can’t ALDI stores provide information on stock availability?
Our special buys constantly change with products being snapped up quickly, so we don't have the capacity to keep an online inventory of every product. For the most up-to-date stock information, please visit us in-store. To find your local store, please visit our store locator webpage.

 

Why do special items sell out so quickly? Why isn’t more stock ordered when the demand is obviously there?
Our weekly Special Buys are ordered months in advance and are intended to be on sale for one week only to keep our range fresh and interesting. Some of our Special Buys sell very quickly because of reasonable pricing and high quality. Unfortunately it is not always possible to predict which items will sell out faster, but we do our best to supply each store with sufficient stock of each product.

Why are some special items limited to one per person?
It is not ALDI's policy to limit purchases to one per customer, but in the event of unexpectedly high demands each store does reserve the right to limit purchases to retail quantities.

 

Why can’t I order in bulk and re-sell?
ALDI is not a wholesaler and all products we sell are intended for our customers' personal use.

 

Why don’t you operate like other supermarkets in Australia?
Our business model is to be efficient and to provide you with top quality products at the lowest possible prices. In order to achieve our business objectives and serve you efficiently we operate differently to other supermarkets.

 

Why does ALDI Stores advertise next week’s specials rather than the current week?
We like to inform you of upcoming Special Buys so you can plan your purchases early. If you don't have a copy of the current catalogue you can pick one up at your local store or register your email address and have the weekly newsletter emailed to you.

What is the ALDI policy on items that have been incorrectly scanned? Are they free?
If a regular product scans at a price higher than that displayed, you are entitled to receive the first item free. All subsequent items will be charged at the lower price.

If a 'special buy/special' product scans at a price higher than the price displayed, ALDI will refund the difference between the scanned price and ticketed price.

 

Why don’t the stores have more staff on busy days?
We always endeavour to have sufficient staff members to accommodate anticipated customer levels and to ensure that we operate in the most efficient and cost effective manner.

 

Why won’t ALDI store staff help me carry large items to my vehicle?
We endeavour to keep our business simple and efficient so that we can pass on the savings to you. Offering such a service would add costs to our business which we would then have to pass onto you via higher prices. As we do not have excess store staff, they cannot leave the store. When an item is over a certain weight, we will advertise the fact in our catalogue and encourage you to bring assistance to help carry the item out of the store. Each store is equipped with a trolley suitable for moving large objects which a Retail Assistant can provide to you.
