Aldi has been crowned Christmas Retailer of the Year for 2022 and it’s not the first time the supermarket has won the accolade.
This year marks Aldi’s third year of winning the title at the industry-renowned Quality Food Awards (QFA).
It doesn’t stop there though as Aldi picked up 48 other awards and commendations for its 2022 Christmas offering including its Best Mince Pies and Best Pigs in Blankets.
The QFAs celebrate the best in retail food products in the UK with products being judged by the most respected professionals in the industry, adding to its credibility.
Julie Ashfield, Managing Director of Corporate Buying at Aldi, said: “We’re thrilled that our dedication to providing our customers with unbeatable quality at everyday low prices has been recognised for the third year in a row.
“This Christmas is going to be full of challenges for families up and down the country, and we want to help make this time a little easier by offering the very best quality at prices that don’t break the bank. From showstopping party food to eye-catching centre pieces, to the best value mince pies, we’ve created a range to help make Christmas amazing for everyone.”
