The parcels will be for home delivery and contain 22 products including tinned soup, rice and pasta, antibacterial handwash and a four-pack of toilet roll.

The parcels are only available online at https://www.aldi.co.uk/food-parcels and will retail at £24.99, inclusive of delivery. They will be limited to one per customer.

The move marks the first time Aldi UK has sold groceries online. Fritz Walleczek, managing director for corporate responsibility at Aldi, said: “We are committed to providing quick, safe and affordable access to food for all our customers and understand that, for some, visiting one of our stores is not an option at the moment.

“We’re constantly looking for new and better ways to support our customers in these uncertain times and I’m hopeful that these food parcels will make life a little easier for some of the country’s most at-risk people.”
