How We’re Continuing to Make Sustainability Affordable

Raising the bar on sustainability without raising prices for shoppers.

As one of America’s fastest-growing retailers, ALDI is committed to raising the bar on  sustainability without raising prices for shoppers. We are proud to become the first major U.S. retailer to eliminate plastic shopping bags from all our stores. We’ve already saved an estimated  15 billion bags from landfills and oceans by charging for plastic shopping bags at check out. Now,  the decision to remove plastic shopping bags will prevent nearly 4,400 tons (nearly nine million  pounds) of plastic from circulation each year. Eliminating plastic shopping bags is just one way  we make sure ALDI is a place where everyone can feel good about where they shop. Learn more  about how we continued to take big steps to limit our environmental impact and give back to  help build stronger, healthier communities throughout 2022 in our Annual Sustainability  Progress Report.
