By the way, this dividing line between two chains is known as the “Aldi-Äquator” in German, which translates to an “Aldi equator”.

There are definitely several maps like this to be found in the Internet, but as far as I can tell none of them are based on more data-sciencey approach, rather than checking which administrative regions correspond to which supermarket chain.
