ALDI has become the first Irish supermarket to partner with the

Food surplus app, pledging to eliminate 60 tonnes of food waste from its operations in 2023.

Following a successful trial last year, the retailer is making surplus food bags available nationwide in a bid to tackle food waste and offer even lower prices to customers.

The surplus food bags, known as ‘Surprise Bags’, will contain a range of products that are approaching their sell-by or use-by dates at a third of the price, costing just €3.99 each to purchase.

To avail of a Surprise Bag, shoppers can download the free Too Good To Go app and search for their nearby ALDI store before reserving a bag to collect from the store at an allotted time.

ALDI has pledged to eliminate 60 tonnes of food waste from its operations in 2023 in support of the Government’s National Food Waste Prevention Roadmap. The nationwide rollout will reduce food from going to waste annually and will form a key part of ALDI’S ongoing commitment to reducing food waste.

In addition to the new partnership, all of ALDI’S 155 Irish stores will continue to donate surplus food to local causes 365 days of the year.

Since 2014, the supermarket has donated more than 2.6 million meals via its successful partnership with charity partner Foodcloud, saving an equivalent of 3.2 million tonnes of CO2. but flavourful too, and a great protein alternative.

And this limited edition Spring Roast is a lentil seitan roast stuffed with Irish roast potatoes and red peppers.

Thanks Plants are stocked in over 300 Irish stores including Supervalu, select Spars in Dublin and independent stores.
