This proposed investment in a new and enhanced Lidl store reflects our ongoing commitment to the area and to providing an even better service to our customers. The proposals include:
A brand new modern Lidl store built to our very latest specification, including in-store facilities like our popular bakery and with a more spacious sales area including your favourite products.
A landscaping scheme will propose planting on the boundaries where possible to support biodiversity on the site.
120 customer parking spaces including 6 accessible, 9 parent & child, 2 EV chargers (with capacity for more), and cycle parking. This would significantly improve on the existing offer at Vivis Lane.
New jobs for local people, including full and part-time roles. Lidl GB pay rates for hourly paid colleagues is a minimum of £13 per hour, increasing to £13.95 with length of service. Existing colleagues would transfer and the new store would provide around 10 additional FTE jobs.
A store with enhanced sustainable technology to minimise energy use, such as heat recovery systems and air source heat pumps. Rapid electric vehicle charging bays are provided in the car park and solar panels on the roof would provide up to 25% of the store’s energy requirements.
Our award-winning bakery!
Our popular Lidl in-store bakery took gold recently, having been awarded No.1 in-store bakery by Kantar on value market share*. Whether it’s tasty Belgian buns, all butter croissants or our range of breads and cakes, we have something local residents will love – all at great prices.
