Aldi axes popular feature as it makes huge changes to online shopping

Aldi is set to make huge changes to its website - including axing online deliveries.

The supermarket giant will begin making the changes later this month, as deliveries for wine and spirits will be phased out. Further updates will be made in autumn, as they plan to put an end to Specialbuy deliveries too.

Other popular online services will still be available though, including a grocery click and collect service. Aldi said it will "continue to consider new digital services in the future".

An Aldi spokesperson said: "Aldi is more popular than ever, and we are prioritising making our wine and Specialbuy products available in our stores. We keep our prices low by being the most efficient retailer in Britain and we have therefore taken the decision to stop selling wine and spirits online for home delivery from later this month.

“We will also stop selling our Specialbuys online for home delivery later this year. Our grocery click and collect service will continue, and we would like to thank every customer that has bought Aldi products online. Aldi will continue to consider new digital services in the future.”

It isn't clear if there will be any job losses as a result of online ordering coming to an end. However, the supermarket is said to be hopeful that affected staff can be moved to other departments within the company.
