Seems the two German supermarket chains really like to have the same infrastructure everywhere. Everywhere I go the Aldis look exactly the same. They have slightly different products depending on the country. But the price tags, interior, … is basically the same. Okay and we don’t have “Flaschenpfand” everywhere… (deposit on the plastic bottles and the machines where you can return bottles.) I bet all of this makes it a lot easier for their techs and management. And it could also explain why they sometimes redo a store that still looks fine and fit it with the latest shenanigans.
And as an aside: I’ve shopped in the first Aldi store ever. It’s not far from where I live.
I’d be interested, too, if he and FUTO got to terms with their community and if they learned how licensing and trademarks work… Last thing I remember he claimed lots if things that weren’t true. And FUTO didn’t really address anything.
