ALDI Australia is partnering with DoorDash to trial its first ever grocery delivery service.
From today (8 July), Australians in Canberra can experience the on-demand service. Through DoorDash, they can order from more than 1800 products including “award-winning” fresh fruit and vegetables, meat, seafood, dairy, bread and household essentials.
“Since entering the Australian market, ALDI’s mission has been to deliver high quality groceries at the lowest prices for Australian households and this ambition remains as strong as ever,” says ALDI Australia Chief Commercial Officer Jordan Lack.
“Through our partnership with DoorDash, we can now literally deliver on this mission directly to Aussies’ doorsteps in an exciting new way that we know our customers have been seeking.
“We’re thrilled that customers in Canberra will be able to shop with ALDI from the comfort of their homes, bringing our ‘Good Different’ shopping experience to more and more people in the tap of an app.”
Using the DoorDash app or doordash.com.au, customers can add items to their cart and order on-demand, or choose a delivery window that suits them, with Dashers who shop and deliver straight to their door.
“We are thrilled to partner with ALDI to deliver greater convenience, choice and affordability to the people of Canberra,” says DoorDash APAC Vice President Simon Rossi.
“Through this new partnership, we’re making it more accessible for shoppers to get their favourite ALDI products delivered directly to their door.”
While ALDI’s availability on DoorDash is temporarily limited to Canberra, the partnership is expected to roll out across the country.
“We know Australians will rejoice at the news of ALDI taking our first step in offering customers this convenient shopping format. We will be watching our Canberra trial very closely with plans to scale in the near future,” says Mr Lack.
To celebrate the partnership, customers who download DoorDash and use code EARLYBIRD on their first DoorDash order before 15 July anywhere in Australia will receive 30% off that order and get up to $100 off at ALDI on DoorDash when it launches in their area.
