ALDI is a global discount supermarket chain with deep roots in Germany, where it was founded by brothers Karl and Theo Albrecht. The brand is famous for its private-label strategy, sourcing products from various manufacturers globally to provide high quality at lower price points. While many of its products are produced locally in the countries where they operate (such as the US, UK, or Australia) to ensure freshness, the brand's identity remains firmly tied to its German heritage and efficient retail model.

Today, ALDI operates as two independent entities: ALDI Süd (South) and ALDI Nord (North). Both remain privately owned by the Albrecht family foundations. In international markets, the two entities split territories; for example, ALDI Süd operates in the United States and the UK, while ALDI Nord operates in France and parts of Southern Europe and owns the Trader Joe's brand in the United States. This unique corporate structure allows the brand to maintain its focus on simplicity and value while expanding its global manufacturing footprint.
