About

We're the team behind HOFER, part of the ALDI SOUTH Group, operating over 540 stores across Austria. Since 1968, when ALDI SOUTH acquired what was then a small Austrian grocery chain founded by Helmut Hofer, we've been on a mission to make quality groceries accessible to everyone at fair prices. What drives us isn't just selling products - it's about smart retail that respects both our customers' budgets and the environment. We've kept things simple: curated selections, mostly private-label products, and operational efficiency that lets us pass savings directly to shoppers.

Today, we're a diverse organization of thousands of employees across 11 countries, all connected through our headquarters in Salzburg. We're not your typical corporate environment - we offer genuine flexibility with hybrid work options for eligible roles, invest heavily in our team's growth through comprehensive training programs, and maintain a culture where everyone's voice matters. Whether you're in one of our stores, supporting our supply chain, or working in IT and digital transformation, you're part of a team that's rethinking what a discount retailer can be. Sustainability isn't just a buzzword for us; it's integrated into how we buy, how we operate, and where we're heading next.
