Producers also need to consider small, large, and distributed pack sizes differently based on sensitivity. The goal is to protect revenues during inflation while focusing on penetration and consumption.

their grocer on social media than the average for all age
groups.
-Last year 29.6% of grocers had mobile apps, and this year
that number is 54.2%.

once a month; this number is up 49.6% since last year.

This increase in online grocery shopping will be largely due to
“Digital Pioneers”

12. LIDL
ALDI and LIDL:
2 Sides of the Same Coin?
-LIDL is another German-based
retailer
-ALDI has more locations
In comparison studies, LIDL excelled in
value and freshness. ALDI was also
the only store to score lower than LIDL
on selection.
When LIDL enters a market, competing
retailers lower their prices, on average,
by 9.3% to compete. In cases where LIDL
enters a market shared with ALDI, ALDI
lowers their prices by up to 19%.
13. ALDI is currently in the process of remodeling over 1,300 stores.
In addition to featuring organic produce, the remodels will:
-Provide a more upscale shopping experience
-Eliminate negative stigmas about ‘‘discount stores’’

The Prospects have

are willing to give it a try
-Heard about the great
prices and the
wonderful selection of
wine and cheese.
-Skeptical or unaware of
the quarter system and
the bring your own bag
policy.
Occasionals
The Occassionals are
variety seekers when it
comes to grocery
shopping
-ALDI is a part
of their consideration
set
-Also shop at Walmart,
HyVee, Target, etc.
32. The Paradox of Choice
ALDI shoppers admitted that
they often craved a specific brand
that Aldi did not carry.
The paradox of choice is the theory
that having more options is not
always better.
More Choices =
Cognitive Dissonance
When people have fewer choices,
consumption decisions are easier
to make and shoppers often end up
buying more.
33. Our participants are ultimately looking for a one-stop-shop
-Don’t want to visit multiple stores
-ALDI’s limited and rotating selection causes confusion
Stigma persists that a smaller selection = not all necessary ingredients
-ALDI shoppers could perceive their visit as a waste of time if they can’t get
everything they need at once
INSIGHT
34. “I don’t need a million options to choose
from, but I would like to be able to find
what I need. With my busy schedule,
making a second grocery store run is a big
waste of my time.”
“
”- Focus Group Participant
35. Insight: The focus group participants are looking to optimize their
time and not waste it on making second, unnecessary grocery runs.
Solution: Since ALDI is not perceived a one-stop-shop, it should
advertise its philosophy on why the selection is limited.
RECOMMENDATION
37. Viewpoints on value connected to quality
-Cheaper price = cheaper quality
-Canned/packaged goods- Little to no
difference in perceived quality
Quality Benchmark: Meat and produce
-Lack of quality produce and meat = Loss of
customers who use those food categories as
benchmarks of quality.
INSIGHT
38. “
”
“Quality in particular groceries is really
important to me. This includes primarily
produce and meat. I am willing to pay more
for higher quality, but not when it comes
at an overwhelming cost.”
- IDI Participant
39. RECOMMENDATION
Insight: Our participants are looking for quality in two main food
categories: produce and meat. They believe, for various reasons,
that ALDI does not meet their quality standards.
Solution: Participants were not aware of the quality testing that
ALDI performs on their products. ALDI should advertise more
about the measures it takes to ensure that its produce and meat are
at a high quality along with an exceptional price.
41. INSIGHT
The participants have strong feelings about the value of ALDI products
-Value is ALDI’s unique selling proposition
-Exceptional value does not override other factors when deciding on a grocery store
There must be good quality with the value, or the customer will look
elsewhere.
-Value is also connected with the idea that a lower price precedes lower quality
-The participants describe the value of ALDI as “affordable” and not “cheap”
42. “
”
I would consider myself a thrifty person because I am always looking
for good deals and affordable options. I love finding creative ways
to save money, especially on things like groceries. There are some
underrated places where I can get great groceries at manageable
prices. I know there are probably higher quality options at high-end
grocery stores, but I am happy taking the affordable route and
putting the money I am saving towards something fun.
- IDI Participant
43. RECOMMENDATION
Insight: Our participants realize that ALDI has one of the best values
around. When they go to ALDI, they know that they are getting the
best price. However, they don’t believe they are getting the best
quality. Although price is getting customers in the door, it is also
driving customers away with the negative perception of low quality.
Solution: ALDI should combine their low price messaging with
concrete evidence of their quality products. Enlightening consumers
on the subject, and giving them a “reason to believe”, can be done
through communication in advertising and social media.
45. Our participants are looking for an efficient grocery store
-Simple path to products, quick cashiers, helpful employers, etc.
-Believe ALDI is an efficient store, but could be optimized even further.
ALDI is a ‘do-it-yourself’ establishment
-Some people might feel that the bag and quarter system is inconvenient
-Primary research shows it isn’t a big enough of a problem to not shop there
INSIGHT
46. “I don’t need all the frills of a luxury grocery store, but I do appreciate
efficiency. A easy-to-navigate layout, friendly employees, and short
checkout lines go a long way for me. Most of the time, I have a
limited window for shopping and need to get in and out in under
twenty minutes. I also appreciate consistency while grocery
shopping. Sometimes I feel totally disoriented if I go to a new
location and the set up is different. Logically organized aisles and
clear signs make grocery shopping so much easier. Short lines are a
huge bonus, as well!
- Focus Group Particpant
47. RECOMMENDATION
Insight: Our participants see ALDI as an efficient store that is easy
to shop. The unique qualities that ALDI possesses are not turn-
offs and they don’t drive people away. However, they do believe
that prior knowledge would be extremely beneficial to non-regular
customers.
Solution: ALDI should focus on educating consumers ahead of
time so they won’t hesitate while getting a cart or get frustrated
about having to buy bags from the store. Having the best initial
experience in the store could help secure new customers and turn
them into loyalists.
50. -Lives a busy lifestyle with work, school and other activities
-Still recently new to supporting themselves individually in all aspects
of life, but they’re proud of it
-Doesn’’t need extra and glamorous luxuries
-Looking for a good balance between price and quality
-Makes most meals at home rather than eating out for price and
health purposes
-They are not affected by the stigma that comes with shopping at a
‘discount’ store
51. When I shop, I’m looking for an expedited, no-frills grocery
store experience. I usually go to the store after a long day of
work, so I’m looking to get in and get out quickly with what I
need. I don’t need all the bells and whistles of some other gro-
cery stores. I’m strictly looking for good value with an efficient
in-store experience. However, even though I do look for good
value in terms of price, I’m not willing to sacrifice quality for
that. So I need a store that gives me a nice balance of both.
