In 1973 Lidl, pronounced LEE DULL, opened its first discount store in Germany and has over 8000 stores in Europe including 500  in the UK. Moreover, last year their turnover was 44 billion euros. These are big numbers by anybody’s benchmark. This considerable turnover means that tens of millions of shoppers vote with their trolley week in week out!

In the UK, where they have been since 1994, they are known as one of the No-Frills supermarkets (Aldi & Netto are UK’s other two) that sell food, drink and non-food products at rock bottom prices but offer no extras. For instance, no free carrier bags are provided. There is no help to pack your shopping and no customer service counter. Their success is based entirely on value for money.
