The German discount grocer Lidl is building a supply chain infrastructure that points to future expansion.
According to a story by CSA sister publication Retail Leader, Lidl is building a network of large distribution centres along the Eastern seaboard that will be capable of serving 1,500 or more stores when fully operational.
The grocer recently opened its third centre, in Perryville, Maryland, midway between Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia. A fourth warehouse, the company’s largest to date at 925,000sq ft, will be located in the southeast of Atlanta.
