Aldi begins fresh produce operations at UK warehouse
Aldi has started handling fresh produce at its £500m automated distribution centre in Bardon, Leicestershire.
The 1.3 million ft² site, which Aldi describes as the UK's largest automated warehouse, uses Cimcorp automation across three temperature-controlled zones. At full capacity in 2027 it is expected to dispatch more than 6,000 pallets a day to stores and employ around 1,000 people.
