Retail giant ALDI has confirmed it is trialling the installation of fridge doors as a possible standard feature in its Aussie stores, with the potential change—made in a bid to reduce energy consumption—widely praised by shoppers as a positive step towards sustainability.
Introducing fridge doors in Aussie stores is part of ALDI's broader commitment to environmental sustainability, with the retail giant already becoming the first Australian supermarket to be powered by 100% renewable electricity in June 2021.
"We are continuously looking for ways to reduce emissions and our impact on the climate," the spokesperson continued,"it’s one of the many ways we’re working to make a good difference in our operations."Despite the positive response from many shoppers, not all customers have welcomed ALDI's decision to try out fridge doors in their stores, with concerns also raised about aisle congestion and the impact on customers with mobility issues.
One member of the social media group said,"Our ALDI is like this too but it’s a nightmare if you have accessibility issues. I use a cane and can’t hold the door open and grab products easily at the same time." Another person agreed, responding,"Absolutely a horrible idea. Not suitable for people with mobility issues or arthritic hands. Makes it an absolute nightmare." A third customer simply stated,"Not a fan at all.
Woolworths has reportedly reduced its carbon emissions by 31 per cent, and is on track to achieve a validated science-based target of 63% reductions by 2030. Further, the Group aims to have a broad positive future impact by reaching net positive emissions no later than 2050. The Together to Zero initiative sets out Coles’ ambition to reduce its impact on the environment, outlining its aspiration towards zero emissions, zero waste and zero hunger. In March 2021, Coles Group committed to being powered by 100% renewable electricity by the end of June 2025 and confirmed their commitment to delivering net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
