Aldi U.S. has launched a redesigned e-commerce website and app in partnership with Instacart, as the discount grocer looks to enhance its digital offering and scale online growth.
The new platform is built on Instacart’s Storefront Pro technology, an end-to-end e-commerce solution tailored for grocery retailers.
It aims to deliver a more seamless and personalised shopping experience, with improved product recommendations, enhanced discovery and integrated meal planning via shoppable recipes.
Chief operating officer Dave Rinaldo said the upgrade reflects changing consumer expectations, with shoppers increasingly valuing both time and cost savings.
The new platform gives customers greater flexibility in how they shop, extending Aldi’s value proposition into digital channels.
Aldi first partnered with Instacart in 2017 to offer online grocery delivery in the U.S., and has since expanded the relationship with additional services, including Aldi Express, a virtual convenience format powered by the platform.

The retailer has also adopted Instacart’s Connected Stores technologies, designed to unify online and in-store experiences through more personalised and data-driven engagement.
Instacart executive Ryan Hamburger said the latest move goes beyond a typical e-commerce integration, combining storefront and fulfilment capabilities into a single platform to support faster scaling while maintaining Aldi’s brand positioning.
The new website and app are now live across the U.S., supporting Aldi’s continued expansion in the market.
Headquartered in Batavia, Aldi U.S. operates around 2,600 stores across 40 states. Instacart, based in San Francisco, partners with more than 2,200 retail banners spanning nearly 100,000 stores across North America.
The move underscores Aldi’s focus on strengthening its omnichannel capabilities as competition intensifies in value grocery and digital fulfilment.
