Aldi sell products that have been produced with respect for both the environment and workers.
Aldi organisation structure
If the store employees have a problem or an enquiry then they will go to the store management team. If the store management team cannot help them they will then go to the district manager, however if they cannot help either they will then go onto the director. The director depends on what the enquiry is about, after this they may go to the vice president. This is the line of communication within a business. Information about the business can also be passed down the information line. If the vice president makes a decision, such as a new product to sell then all of the other people within the business must know about it. The information must get passed down the line of communication in order to reach the store employees which are at the bottom of the communication line.
The vice president is responsible for the directors, district manager, store management team and the store employees. This means that he has a wide span of control because the vice president oversees a large number of subordinates.
