Lidl is to open a 1 million sq ft warehouse in Luton as it continues its attack on the British grocery sector.
The German discount retailer group said the new regional distribution centre would be more than double the size of any warehouse it had in the UK and would be on a 58-acre site at junction 11A of the M1.
The centre, which will create up to 1,000 jobs, will help Lidl to service its stores in Greater London, where it has three distribution centres. Overall, Lidl has 16 warehouses that are supporting its British expansion.
