Aldi scrapping best before dates to help cut back on food waste as average families waste £470 a year
- 2 years ago
Aldi has announced plans to remove best before dates from around 60 of its own brand products to help tackle food waste in homes.
By the end of the year, Britain’s fifth largest supermarket will remove best before dates from around 60 fresh fruit and veg lines, including apples and pears, citrus fruits, potatoes, carrots and onions, which could help households to save on food waste each year.
The move forms part of Aldi’s commitment to reduce food waste by 20% by 2025 and halve it by 2030.
