Lidl is calling on contractors from across the country to sign up to a series of events aimed at forging new relationships and engaging with existing partners, as it looks to open hundreds of new stores in Great Britain.

The events are set to take place from July in Newcastle, Glasgow, Birmingham and Southampton.Hosted by members of the dedicated Lidl GB property and construction teams, the events will provide contractors with the chance to learn about opportunities to work with Lidl, whilst gaining insight into the discounter’s structure, processes and requirements.

The events follow a year of significant investment in its infrastructure to further strengthen operations, whilst earlier in the year Lidl also published its latest wish list of locations, eyeing major growth in cities including Edinburgh, Leeds, Liverpool, and London.

Richard Taylor, Lidl GB Chief Development Officer, commented: “As we celebrate our 30th year, our commitment to ensuring that all households across the country have access to high-quality produce at affordable prices is stronger than ever. We’re planning to open hundreds of new Lidl stores and the contractors that we work with are essential in supporting this ambition. That is exactly why we’re hosting these events in Newcastle, Glasgow, Birmingham and Southampton. It not only gives us a chance to meet new contacts and engage with existing partners, but also presents them with the opportunity to speak firsthand with the relevant teams here at Lidl. We would therefore encourage anyone interested in attending to sign up.”

Lidl has been the fastest-growing bricks and mortar supermarket in the UK for the past 10 months. This year marks 30 years since the opening of its first stores in the country, and it is celebrating a record-high market share of 8.1%.

Those interested in joining are encouraged to sign up by emailing SCON@lidl.co.uk.
