Hi, iam Robert Jurgens, Don’t worry, it’s one day closer to the weekend.

Sure does! “Aldi” is short for “Albrecht Discount,” and it’s a German discount supermarket chain. Founded by brothers Karl and Theo Albrecht in 1946, Aldi has become one of the world’s largest grocery store chains. So, when you hear someone say “Aldi,” you can bet they’re talking about a German company!
