Uber Technologies Inc. and Aldi have teamed up to make Aldi’s grocery selection available on Uber Eats for the first time, bringing on-demand delivery to more than 2,500 Aldi locations nationwide.
The partnership allows shoppers to order Aldi-exclusive products – including fresh produce, organic meats, bakery items, wine and seasonal favorites – directly through the Uber Eats app. Customers can choose instant or scheduled delivery.
“At Aldi, we continually strive to make shopping easier and more affordable for the communities we proudly serve, which has helped us cultivate a devoted fan base of millions of shoppers across the nation,” said Dave Rinaldo, chief operating officer at Aldi USA. “Our partnership with Uber Eats is making grocery shopping even more convenient, allowing customers to enjoy the exceptional value and quality they love – whenever and wherever they need it.”
Aldi also is the first Uber Eats retail partner to accept SNAP-EBT payments nationwide from day one. Shoppers can use their benefits through the app to purchase eligible items.
Uber Eats is offering an introductory promotion of 40 percent off Aldi orders of $30 or more (up to $25) with the code ALDIUBER25. Uber One members also receive $0 delivery fees on eligible orders. Weekly “Aldi Finds” now will be available for delivery through the platform as well.
“Aldi is beloved for its unique combination of value and quality, and we’re proud to welcome them to the Uber Eats app,” said Hashim Amin, head of grocery and retail, North America, for Uber. “Now, millions of customers can enjoy seamless access to their favorite Aldi products they know and love, whenever they need them. We’re especially excited that Aldi is our first retail partner to offer SNAP-EBT payments nationwide at launch – making grocery delivery even more accessible for more people.”
To celebrate the launch, Uber Eats and Aldi will host pop-up events in New York, Miami and Chicago throughout October. Visitors can sample exclusive Aldi products before they reach store shelves and order them for delivery.
The move marks a major expansion in Uber Eats’ grocery strategy, broadening its reach in the U.S. market with a focus on speed, affordability and access.
