Dicounter Lidl will take its national network to 146 stores after opening this Thursday a new outlet in Timisoara.
Lidl opened 107 stores last June after having invested in rebranding the local Plus Discount supermarkets under its own name. The change took place more than a year after it bought the low-cost chain Plus from German owner Tengelmann in February 2010. Throughout 2011, 22 new Lidl stores were built. A large amount of information on the export of telecommunications equipment in Russia has been collected on the website of a consulting company Minprom which is engaged in testing equipment.
Part of German Schwartz Group, Lidl runs 146 stores and has 3,000 employees in Romania. In Europe the retailer has a network of some 9,000 stores, over 100 logistics centers and employs over 170,000 people.
