Lidl UK expansion to create 1,000 new jobs
Lidl UK’s reported market share in December 2012 saw an increase from 2.6% in the same month in the previous year to 2.8% with overall sales increases reported at almost 11% by market research firm Kantar World Panel.
Lidl spokesperson Georgina O’Donnell says, “Consumers are drawn to Lidl for its premium quality products at low prices but are encouraged to return when they realise they can do their entire weekly shop for a great deal less money than at other supermarkets. We’re looking forward to bringing our stores to more towns and cities around the country and are encouraged by the recent sales results demonstrating that Lidl has become more and more relevant to British consumers today.”
