      Entry Level Example

      "Aldi is vocal about their core value to be responsible in reducing their environmental footprint. I read that Aldi was recently ranked as the No. 1 most sustainable grocery retailer among seven of the most popular U.S. chain stores by Brightly.eco. I know the company has made great strides in creating reusable product packaging, has eliminated the use of plastic bags in stores, and has created sustainable product lines. Aldi is definitely an industry leader when it comes to sustainability."

      Experienced Example

      "I know Aldi stores tend to be smaller than traditional stores like Walmart or Whole Foods. I also know Aldi is focused on simplicity to keep costs down. For example, instead of having employees go to the parking lot and bring carts in regularly, customers are asked to put a quarter in the slot in the cart, then when the customer returns it to the rack, they get their quarter back. Additionally, the company does not use plastic bags in the check-out process; rather, customers are encouraged to bring their own reusable bags to carry their groceries out."

      "The fact that the supermarket is much smaller to other supermarket chains, how Aldi does not offer plastic bags for free at the checkouts to reduce costs and how the opening and closing times are matched for the busiest times for people to shop also to reduce labor."
