Through this investment, the firm\u00a0will create 250 new direct jobs over the next five years.

Lidl\u2019s U.S. headquarters are in Arlington, Md. and the company now operates more than 10,000 stores in 28 countries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Georgia is a gateway to the Southeastern market and beyond, providing innovative retail leaders such as Lidl the logistics infrastructure needed to support a growing customer base.

Although Lidl is known as a discount grocer which focuses on stores with a small footprint, the chain is marketing itself\u00a0in the U.S. as the place for top quality items at the lowest price.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of Lidl<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The news comes as the German grocer already announced four new store openings in July, two of them being located in Virginia and the other two in North Carolina. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1055,"featured_media":1004182586,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1489,21782,21742,21749],"tags":[33705,35671],"class_list":["post-1004182583","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-atlanta","category-development","category-latest","category-retail","tag-governor-nathan-deal","tag-lidl"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
