Aldi - with a store in Coalville - has re-assured customers that they are fully stocked and have regular deliveries despite the new lockdown.

The supermarket chain says shoppers do not have to over-buy products during the coming weeks.

Coalville's Aldi is based in Adcock Road.

And the store's chief executive Giles Hurley issued the following message on Monday evening.

It reads: "As new Government restrictions are introduced across the UK, I want to reassure you that all our stores are fully stocked, we have good availability and there are regular deliveries, at least once a day. There is no need to buy more than normal so please shop considerately.

"If you can't make it into one of our stores, our new Click & Collect service is now available in over 200 locations. Visit Click and Collect to see if this new service is available in your area.

"You may also be able to get Aldi groceries delivered to your home via Deliveroo. Check the Deliveroo app or visit Aldi-Deliveroo to see if the service is available locally to you.

"And of course our measures to ensure that you can continue to shop safely at your local Aldi remain in place.

"All our stores have a traffic light system at entrances to ensure a safe number of people can shop at any one time, whilst maintaining social distancing.

"We have protective screens at all 7,000 of our checkouts and all stores have sanitisation stations for customer use.

"There are clear signs and social distancing markers advising how to shop safely.

"We are encouraging payment by card or contactless when possible, with an increased contactless limit of £45.

"We continue to provide NHS, Blue Light and vulnerable customers priority access at specific times.

"Our colleagues wear face masks in store, unless they are behind screens at the checkout or are exempt for medical reasons. Thank you for supporting us and keeping others safe by wearing one too.

"Thank you for your continued support. Please rest assured that we are as committed as ever to providing you with a quick, safe and affordable shopping experience every time you visit Aldi."
