Lidl UK Revenue and Competitors

Discount retailing Pioneering a do-it-different, keep-it-simple approach has helped Lidl achieve significant international success. The company was founded in Germany in 1930, as a grocery wholesaler. Today, it is one of the largest grocery retailers in Europe and no longer the 'new kid on the block'”‹ in the UK. Since opening in the UK in 1994, Lidl has grown consistently and now has more than 650 stores and nearly 20,000 employees in the UK alone. Opening 40-50 new stores every year, as well as new distribution centres and offices, means the teams are continuously growing. It takes drive, ambition and a healthy dose of hard work to succeed at Lidl but, in return, the rewards and opportunities are like no other. Being part of one of the UK's fastest growing retailers means you'll see your career grow alongside their success. Together you'll make it happen.
