Divided how? By food preference?
 
Some info:

Aldi Nord is responsible for its stores in Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Poland, Spain, Denmark, and Portugal, and also operates the Trader Joe's markets in the United States. Aldi Süd's responsibilities are in the United States (operating under the Aldi name), Austria and Slovenia (as Hofer), Italy, Great Britain, Ireland, Australia, Hungary, China and Switzerland.[24] Aldi Süd's first Switzerland store opened in 2005, while it has operated in Hungary since 2007. Aldi Süd had invested an estimated €800m ($1bn; £670m) in Greece from November 2008 until pulling out on 31 December 2010.[25]

While Aldi Nord has renamed its Dutch and Belgian subsidiaries Combi and Lansa to the Aldi Markt/Aldi Marché brand, Aldi Süd tries to maintain a regional appearance, branding its stores Aldi Süd in Germany, Aldi Suisse in Switzerland, and Hofer in Austria and Slovenia



 
No - by cigarettes!

ALDI SÜD has cigarettes
ALDI NORD has no cigarettes!
Why didn't you say so? What's that have to do with the rest of the world?
 
here are two short lists:

ALDI NORD: Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Poland, Spain, Denmark, and Portugal - and the USA as well.
ALDI SÜD: United States (operating under the Aldi name), Austria and Slovenia (as Hofer), Italy, Great Britain, Ireland, Australia, Hungary, China and Switzerland.
 
Once upon a time the 4 world powers have divided Germany into East and West.
Now two brothers have divided Germany into North and South.

It may not be important. I just hope that you can see the funny side of it. :)
 
Trader Joe’s was founded by Joe Coulombe in 1967 in Pasadena, California. Aldi’s took over in 1979, but Monrovia, California is listed as the location of Trader Joe’s headquarters.

Trader Joe’s is very popular on the Westside of L.A.
