Aldi is ramping up its on-demand delivery partnership with Deliveroo to nearly 130 stores across the UK.
The German discounter is once again announcing an expansion of its Deliveroo tie-up, which has seen it offer home grocery delivery for the first time, following huge demand for the service.
Last month Aldi said it had extended the trial to 42 stores across the UK but it has now more than tripled this number adding an additional 90 stores, making the service more widely available across Scotland and Wales.
Customers within a 6km radius of one of these stores can now order over 400 Aldi items for delivery in as little as 20 minutes.
Aldi added that it planned to roll out its new click & collect service to over 200 additional stores by Christmas as strong demand continues to push the grocer to focus more on online shopping alternatives.

In September, Aldi announced plans to invest a whopping £1.3 billion in to modernising its stores and distribution networks, crucially placing a major focus on its fledgling online offering.
“We’re finding customers really value having more ways to shop at Aldi, particularly at the moment,” Aldi UK’s communications director Richard Thornton said.
“That’s why we’ve been keen to extend our trial with Deliveroo to stores in more new areas, and plan to launch our trial of click and collect in more than 200 additional stores between now and Christmas.
“In the past month, we have made the Deliveroo service available in new areas such as Cardiff and Aberdeen, and will continue to monitor feedback of the service closely.”
