I am British and live in the UK, I shop in Aldi. Great for prices. Trader Joe's is owned by Aldi Nord, which was once the same company as Aldi, but the 2 brothers seperated the organisation and it became 2 seperate companies. Aldi Nord and Aldi Sud. Aldi Sud dropped the sud and became Aldi when it expanded outside Germany. Aldi Nord as not expanded as much. When Aldi Nord moved into the US they bought out Trader Joe's
@@jurgenmuller143 no, just facts , morrisons has been cheaper for a long while now , all the media does is compare prices of a small basket shop but not a family sized shop where morrisons etc has WAY better multibuy deals makiung aldi more expensive
@@girlsdrinkfeck In germany goods (food, washing powder, shampoos, etc.) are tested regularly from the Stiftung Warentest (Ingredients, contamination with harmful substances, quality...).. Stiftung Warentest is a non-profit German consumer organization and by far the best-known foundation in Germany. Fun fact for you: Aldi's own brands are mainly among or the winners (the best), while the expensive branded items usually perform very poorly!!!
So? Who cares? In Germany there were several tests where so-called wine conoisseurs were given multiple wines to blind taste-test. The cheap Aldi brand often won. Not always, but very regularly. In multiple eco-tests the brands for Aldi often had the lowest contaminent levels of all products, be their organic or standard. Mind you their contaminent levels s are often at tiny fractions of the legal levels allowed to be deemed safe.
@@girlsdrinkfeck What makes you think that the aldi prices are a deception? If you're going to claim something like that, then you should also provide proof. The fact is. Aldi stocks high-quality goods from reputable manufacturers, but under its own label. Aldi imports goods from Europe and is still cheaper than other suppliers. So cheap does not necessarily mean that the goods are bad. And Aldi looks closely at what's in the food, which others don't do, the main thing is to sell at a high price and fill its own pockets. The American food industry is not known to be the best in the world, full of contaminated chemical ingredients, which are absolutely forbidden in Europe, but you don't seem to be aware of that.
@@baramuth71 the media only compares prices of foods as singular. Aldi dis r do much multi buy savings. No one buys only 1 milk 1 bread 1 eggs etc. Morrisons for example is cheaper if u buy 2 or 3 of an item
Aldi split in the sixties in Germany, to Aldi North and Aldi South (Two similar but different logos). Since both have expanded and become international, you now have Aldi South in the US. However, you may be surprised that "Trader Joes" parent company is Aldi North?
In Germany (where Aldi orininaly comes from) most people go to Aldi to get the basics and the they go to a supermarket to get the few things Aldi don't have. In Germany it's easyer to do because the grocery's and supermarkets are often in residential areas too, So it's not a big deal. It's a little bit of mote work but it saves a lot of cash
Ah Aldi... in a work week I do my early shopping there around 8 ante meridiem, it's just around the corner from my place of work, well there or at it's darker blue twin Lidl, but that's Germany for you, we have grocery stores in city centres and interspersed in dormitory areas in your standard run-of-the-mill communities and as others in the comments have stated: whatever I don't get at Aldi (south btw. here, so the one you know in the US, Aldi North *is* Trader Joe's on your side of the Aryth Ocean😉) I just get on my way back or to work in other grocery shops on the way, there's a ton, but Germany in general is one of the world's, and certainly Europe's) most competitive markets for groceries...so...yeah. Best regards Raoul G. Kunz
I buy almost everything at Aldi. Besides being cheaper, I have one right next to me. Initially I didn't know their products, but I tried them and now I know everything.
Fun fact: often enough those "store brand" items at Aldi are actually the name brand stuff in cheaper packaging. specially here in Germany where their dairy products are kinda famous for this.
Aldi in the UK advertises itself as our cheapest supermarket chain. So much so that the other chains now offer many prices checked 'at the same price as Aldi'. Quality is quite good too, but the limited choice, especially when it comes to the range of goods and brands is a deterrent to using Aldi for every shop. So I alternate each week between Tesco and Aldi. I also use smaller local convenience stores in between for things like fresh bread or the odd items I forgot at the weekly shop, even though they are dearer. Aldi has been here a few decades now and is presently slowly expanding in the UK - but is still behind their German model where there seems to be far more of them in smaller communities. Interestingly, I would say Aldi does not just appeal to people on lower incomes. Lots of more well to do people shop there too.
they arent the cheapest though so thats a con and fake marketing , unless the prices are for the SAMe exact brand and product its not a comparison, also for ages morrisons has been way cheaper than aldis for a family shop
Trader Joe‘s is Aldi Nord (North) In Germany we have 2 Aldis In North of Germany we have Aldi Nord (North). In South of Germany we have Aldi Süd (South) There were two brothers who founded Aldi, who did not agree like with Puma and Adidas, which also emerged from one company. One brother owns Trader Joe's and the other Aldi. For Americans it would be strange if Trader Joe's was called Aldi Nord
Trader Joe is also Aldi, Aldi North, same as in Northern Germany, Belgium, France and the Netherlands. Aldi in the US is the same as Aldi South, operating in the South of Germany.
Hello from Germany! Aldi's own brands are mostly branded products, just with different packaging and no name. If you look at the manufacturer If you look at the packaging and compare it with the branded products, you will see that they are the same manufacturer! Greetings Nephilim
I normally shop at Aldi here in The Netherlands. (I think your pronunciation "ahl-dee" is better than the "ohl-dee" in the video, but then again, I'm not an American) I buy most of my daily groceries at Aldi, and only for specific things that they don't have I go to another supermarket, Nettorama, which is conveniently located nextdoor to Aldi. There are actually two independent Aldi chains in Europe: Aldi-nord and Aldi-süd, which serve respectively the north and south of the continent. Trader Joe's is owned by one of them (nord), and Aldi (America) by the other (süd).
The comparison between Aldi and Trader Joe's is appropriate because they're literally related. A(ldi stands for "ALbrecht DIscount", a very successful convenience store chain in Germany (and then Europe). Herr Albrecht then bought Trader Joe from its original founder, and later passed on the two businesses to his two sons. And both of them get highly rated by employees. Aldi (:all dee", like "ball three") is very very efficient right down to the clerks, the fastest anywhere. Mine is not that close either but if I'm in the area I usually go in. Peace Tysheen
BS ... the company started in 1913 ! 1945 the 2nd generation took over, namely Karl and Theo Albrecht, streamlining their parents business. The Brothers split the business in 1961 over a disagreement of selling cigarettes in the stores.
10:16 - It is pronounced with an “A” and not an “O” because it is the abbreviation for AL-brecht DI-scount. You should also look for another German discount market. It's called LIDL (pronounced Leedle) and it's just as good as ALDI.
I shop at Lidl Tysheen. Its very much the same, But does have a cheap fresh Bakery in store. I dont know if you have a lidle. I think the both are brothers.
I would love to shop at Aldi... But i have limited mobility... So i order online and my shopping is delivered to my home instead... Aldi UK doesn't provide a home delivery service... So i order my shopping from Asda instead... If Aldi did offer online shopping with a home delivery service... They would be the number one supermarket here in the UK... As most people here would be tempted to give them a try... If they ever do go down the home deliveries route... It will see a major shift in UK grocery shopping habits... And the current big top four supermarkets like Tesco... Asda... Sainsbury's... Morrisons... Will have to adapt or die... That means slashing their prices to the bone... In a final attempt to save their own skins... You can already see the effects that Aldi have right now... As you'll constantly see TV advertisements where the "big four" will constantly refer to matching Aldi on hundreds of everyday products... But Aldi are smart... And their TV advertisements will poke fun at them by stating... Why settle for hundreds of items matched to Aldi... When you can have every cheap Aldi price... By simply shopping at Aldi all the time... It's really great marketing.
You pronounced it correctly the first time, Al-di not All-di. What you said is closer to the original German. Most British pronounce it the wrong way aswell. Been using them and Lidl (Also pronounced wrongly here) since the eighties and ninties when I lived in Germany.

The quality is also pretty good. Asda was bought out (AGAIN), and the prices have shot up, but quality as gone down. So I'm shopping around.
ALDI quality is awful. ASDA is owned and run by Muslim brothers who openly support Islam over any other religion or society.

Aldi South is in the US. Aldi North (the other brother) owns Trader Joes. In Germany, we just have the two in the north and south.
With how many stores they are opening, it might be worth checking to see if there is one nearer you that has opened up!
When Aldi first opened here in the UK the cashiers had to learn the prices and put them in the tills/ cash register, they had to be very quick as well
