The 45 suppliers produced over 75 products between them, which went onto the shelves in Aldi in at the end of May for two weeks.
“Now in its third year, Grow with Aldi has consistently delivered for everyone involved," said John Curtin, group buying director, Aldi.
"Small and medium sized Irish suppliers get the opportunity to have their product sold nationally, shoppers get to enjoy the best Irish-made products being created, and Aldi gets to work with even more Irish suppliers," he added.
Aldi has invested over €2.5 million in the Grow with Aldi programme since it began in 2018.
Developed in partnership with Bord Bia, Grow with Aldi supports small and medium sized Irish suppliers to gain exposure and experience with a major retailer in Ireland.
