Lidl GB has confirmed that its new supermarket on West One Retail Park in Eccles, will open for the first time on Thursday 9th September.
The store opening times will be between 8am – 10pm Monday to Saturday, and 11am – 5pm on Sunday, delivering Lidl’s offering of fresh, quality and great value produce.
During the first week of opening customers will be able to find exclusive deals and offers on selected products on the opening day including a Professional Stand Mixer (£39.99), a Colour Changing Glass Kettle (£9.99), as well as a Slime Station (£7.99).
Part of the company’s ongoing £1.3bn expansion and regeneration plans across Great Britain for 2021 and 2022, the store will create up to 40 new jobs for the local community. The new supermarket will have a 1,406m² sales area and feature facilities including an instore bakery, customer toilet and ample parking for both cars and bicycles.
The new store will be providing surplus produce to several local charities, including Manchester City Mission, KSLC CIC and The RCCG City Of Praise charity, all of whom provide welfare and support for the local community by redistributing surplus and donated food. This is delivered through Lidl’s Feed it Back scheme, which is run in partnership with Neighbourly and connects Lidl stores up and down the country with local charities, foodbanks, community cafes and kitchens, putting quality food surplus to good use every day.
Lidl GB’s Regional Head of Property, Nick Harvey, commented: “It is fantastic that we are able to open our doors and welcome local residents into our new store at West One Retail park in Eccles. We would like to thank everyone who has played a part in delivering this store and we look forward to serving our multi-award-winning products to the local community.”
