Lidl reveals Scottish expansion plans | Progresiv
Lidl UK is to open five new stores in Scotland over the next 18 months, creating more than 300 new jobs. 
The discounter’s expansion plans include new stores in Paisley, Dumbarton, Giffnock, East Kilbride, and Scotland’s first Lidl ‘metropolitan’ store in Edinburgh, which will each create up to 40 jobs in their respective communities.
Lidl will also launch a programme of rebuilds, refurbishments and extensions across many of its existing Scottish stores, including Glasgow, Motherwell, Aberdeen and Ayr.
Ross Millar, regional director for Scotland at Lidl UK, said: “We at Lidl are incredibly proud to be part of a business that is able to positively impact so many of our customers’ lives, through the availability and accessibility of quality fresh products, at market-leading value.
“This is only made possible through the hard work and dedication of our existing 2,200 workforce, and we’re therefore delighted to be in a position to create new jobs and welcome even more colleagues into the Lidl family.” (www.talkingretail.com)
