“The incredible response to our second Fan Favorites survey reinforces how much our customers love ALDI-exclusive items,” said Joan Kavanaugh, vice president of national buying. “ALDI is known for its commitment to high-quality groceries at unbeatable prices, but it's our loyal fans who truly define us. They are passionate about their most-loved products and share that excitement within their communities and with us.

“This survey creates another opportunity to hear directly what our consumers want and need most,” Kavanaugh continued. “As a result, we’ve added extra refrigerated space in stores and expanded our product offerings to include a broader selection of meats and seafood, fresh produce and better-for-you options. It is exciting to see several newer items ranked the highest among Fan Favorites.”
