Lidl Opens Two Stores, Plans More

Lidl is expanding with new stores and proposals in the U.S. and the U.K. In Baltimore, the discount grocer plans to open its second city location on Belair Road on Dec. 16, making it the company’s 23rd Maryland store. In Silver Spring, Lidl plans to take over the former Amazon Fresh space at White Oak Town Center, though it has not shared an opening date. In Paisley, Scotland, Lidl has proposed a supermarket that it says would bring a multi-million-pound investment and 40 jobs, with the application awaiting a decision. Lidl also opened a new store in Stockport, England, on Nov. 5.
