"I grew up shopping with my mother at Aldi, so I'm very familiar with the store size, structure, products, and customer processes. From a higher level, I know Aldi has been awarded the Overall Energy Achievement Award, the top award for recognition of its approach to using sustainable energy, energy reduction, and reducing carbon emissions. I think the Aldi mission is an incredible one."

"I know that Aldi was first started in Germany by two brothers, in the 1940's. It is now one of the largest discount supermarkets, boasting over 10,000 locations across various countries. What I appreciate most about Aldi are the cost-saving efforts your organization takes to pass the savings along to your loyal customers. I look forward to joining such a socially conscious organization."
