ALDI is to gather ‘key’ insights through the launch of a trial deposit return scheme (DRS) at its Bathgate store.
The initiative will see customers receive a 10p voucher for each bottle and can returned, with it coming ahead of the Scottish Government’s planned nation-wide introduction of DRS.
Richard Holloway, regional managing director of Aldi Scotland, said, “We’re always looking for new ways to look after our environment and promote recycling whenever possible.
“We hope local customers in Bathgate will embrace this trial and we will use their feedback to inform our plans as we prepare for the deposit return scheme roll out in Scotland.”
