1 The scope of data takes into account own-brand products containing tea (items that contain products from the tea plant, such as black and green tea), as well as own-brand products containing tea infusions (such as herbal and fruit tea).
2 In 2020, the quantities of tea certified by UTZ and Rainforest Alliance were still surveyed separately. From 2021, the survey will be adapted to account for the merger of the two certification standards.
3 The information regarding the legally independent companies of ALDI Belgium and ALDI Luxembourg has been combined for the purposes of a simplified presentation (refer to ‘Additional information’).
4 The value for 2019 was corrected compared to the information published in the previous year’s report.
