All the supermarket changes shoppers will see as it shares Christmas opening times update

The supermarket will operate with different opening hours over the Christmas period.

When visiting stores, shoppers will see a number of changes in stores.


Aldi confirmed its Christmas opening hours and that all stores will be closed on December 25 and December 26 for another year.

Opening hours will vary in the run up to the big day, but branches will extend hours to make sure customers can get everything they need.

This comes as the packaging was removed from more fruits and vegetables.

A trial was launched to sell garlic, limes, lemons and oranges loose in select Aldi stores.

If this is rolled out, it will remove 94 tonnes of plastic packaging from branches each year.

It is also running a trial where shoppers can return their blister packs to be recycled.

Aldi is working with TerraCycle to allow shoppers to return the medicine packaging with a Freeport shipping label available from the Aldi website.

The packs will then be repurposed to make products such as nuts and bolts, plastic waste bins and even outdoor furniture.

Plastics and Packaging Director at Aldi UK Luke Emery said: “We are committed to reducing our impact on the environment and continue to look for new ways to promote recycling wherever possible.

“We hope our customers will get involved in the trial and embrace this new way of recycling their empty blister packets.”
