Aldi adds Uber Eats to online delivery roster
Aldi is providing nationwide on-demand delivery with a new partner.
The rapidly-expanding discount grocery chain is teaming up with the Uber Eats delivery subsidiary of Uber to make its more than 2,500 U.S. stores available to fill on-demand and scheduled deliveries on the Uber Eats app.
Aldi has also been providing online delivery in collaboration with DoorDash in the U.S. since 2023 and with Instacart since 2017. In addition, shoppers using SNAP-EBT federal benefits can use them at Aldi through Uber Eats, making Aldi the first retailer on the app to accept SNAP payments nationwide from its first day of operating there.
