Aldi and Trader Joe’s are two very popular grocery stores. But are they owned by the same company?
No, Aldi and Trader Joe’s are not owned by the same company. Aldi is owned by the German company, Aldi Sud, while Trader Joe’s is owned by the American company, Albertsons.
Aldi Sud is a private company that owns Aldi Nord, which in turn owns Aldi stores in other countries, including the United States. Albertsons, on the other hand, is a publicly-traded company that owns a number of grocery store chains in the United States, including Safeway and Vons.
While Aldi and Trader Joe’s may seem similar, they are actually quite different. For one, Aldi stores are much larger than Trader Joe’s stores. And while both stores offer private label products, Aldi also offers a wide variety of national brands.
So, while Aldi and Trader Joe’s may be similar in some ways, they are ultimately two different companies.
