SURREY, ENGLAND - Lidl is one of the fastest growing retailers in the world. Don’t believe me? All you have to do is take a trip down search engine lane and find our site riddled with headlines that tout the grocer’s expansion in the United States—recently hitting triple digit store counts—as well as its warehouse acquisitions and tech innovations.
As it focuses on growth around the globe, Lidl has now announced that it plans to open 28 stores in Surrey, England, further protecting its expansion claim to fame.
The retailer, according to a post on news source SurreyLive, has been on the lookout for new sites in the area after it recently opened a new store in Weybridge. These new sites all figure in prominent parts of town, a strategic move for Lidl as it continues to build out its brand name.
Where else will we see Lidl’s expansion plans strike next? Although the chain already boasts of 100 stores in the United States, AndNowUKnow is waiting for the day it hits 200—a day that may not be that far off.
