A SUPERMARKET retailer will be launching a click-and-collect service in Cross Hands.

Aldi will be trialling its services at the Llandeilo road store with the hope of extending it to 200 other stores by Christmas.

Customers can simply log on to groceries.aldi.co.uk then collect them, in pre-booked one-hour collection slots.

On arrival at dedicated click-and-collect points in the store car park, customers will be able to have their shopping brought to their cars by Aldi staff contact-free, in line with social distancing rules.

CEO of Aldi UK and Ireland, Giles Hurley, said: “Aldi’s quality products and unbeatable prices have never been so in demand.

“Extending this trial is about providing thousands more of our existing customers with another convenient way to shop with us, while also making Aldi accessible for many others who may not have shopped with us before.”

The German-owned retailer is Britain’s fifth largest supermarket with 900 stores and more than 36,000 employees.

In Wales it has 50 stores and 1,300 staff.

Further stores in Carmarthenshire also taking part in the click-and collect service are:

Llanelli – Swanfield Place

Carmarthen – Stephens Way
