Lidl Northern Ireland Opens Two New Stores
Lidl Northern Ireland has announced the reopening of its Stewartstown Road store in West Belfast and the opening of a new store in Carryduff.
The Stewartstown Road store, which has undergone a major redevelopment, will reopen on December 5th. The new Carryduff store, Lidl’s 43rd in Northern Ireland, will open on December 12th.
The two new stores have created 65 permanent jobs and incorporate sustainable features like LED lighting, heat pumps, and solar panels.
To celebrate the openings, Lidl will offer discounts, supplier demonstrations, and family entertainment. The first ten shoppers at each store will receive a gift card.
Ivan Ryan, Lidl Northern Ireland Regional Managing Director said: "As part of Lidl Northern Ireland's 25th anniversary celebrations earlier this year, I was pleased to confirm a fresh £150 million investment into expanding and upgrading our store network across the region and it's great to see two significant projects realised before the end of this milestone year.
"Not only that, but we're delighted to be able to open both these highly anticipated stores in time for the festive season so local shoppers can avail of our quality products at market leading value this Christmas.
"Having served the Stewartstown community for over two decades, I'm thrilled to open the doors to a modern and spacious new store for our valued customers in the area to enjoy an enhanced shopping experience in-store. I'm also grateful for the support that has been shown to us by the local community and elected representatives.
"It's also a huge milestone in our property expansion plans to cut the ribbon on our brand-new Carryduff store which takes our store count to 43 in the region. This project has also been warmly welcomed by residents, businesses and stakeholders alike and will be transformative for what was once a major retail offering in the heart of the community – and will be again this Christmas.
"Welcoming an additional 65 employees to our store team this month and creating local employment has been one of the most rewarding parts of this project. I know the teams are excited to welcome both new shoppers and loyal customers to experience the new stores so I would advise shoppers to get down early and avail of our opening day offers."
