Supermarket Giant Aldi Reveals New Logo Design

By Editor March 14, 2017

Categories: Food

Discount supermarket chain Aldi has unveiled a new logo design as part of a rebranding programme that is aiming to “modernise” the German company.

The retailer’s blue, red and orange badge now takes on a more three-dimensional look, with a gradient effect giving the light blue “A” a ribbon-like appearance. Other changes include a modified logotype as well as brighter colours.

Designed by Germany-based consultancy Illion Markensocietaet, the new look is being described as an evolution rather than a revolution.

“It is receiving a more dashing design, which reflects dynamic improvement and innovative changes and developments that have recently characterised the firm,” Aldi says about the new logo design.

The outgoing logo was designed in 1982, and introduced the cut-off “A” on a blue background in a three-colour frame. Slight modifications were made to the logo colours in 2001 and again in 2006.

Aldi was originally founded by brothers Karl and Theo Albrecht in 1946 when they took over their mother’s store in Essen which had been in operation since 1913.

The brothers then built up a chain of stores that were named Albrecht until 1962, whereupon the name Aldi was first introduced, and which combined the words “Albrecht” and “Diskon” (“Discount”).

In the UK, Aldi this year overtook Co-op to become the fifth-largest supermarket in Britain.

    I think the 1982 logo is actually the most contemporary. This new version looks like something from the 90's. I love Aldi. It's my primary grocery store, but this logo looks dated and I'm not a fan.

    Doesn't the latest logo remind you of the head of the Giza Sphinx? I only noticed it when Aldi put out a Back-To-School catalog with cartoons depicting school children as Egyptian mummies. You can't un-see the Sphinx in the logo once you first see it. Why would Aldi want to make this association with Egypt?
