Lidl continues its rapid expansion in Bulgaria and increases its sales on a promising market of Eastern Europe.
The German retailer Lidl which has opened its first stores in Bulgaria in November 2010, is now present in over thirty cities.
Lidl continues to extend and has added three stores to its network. The supermarkets were opened in the towns of Dimitrovgrad and Harmanli Radnevo on the sites of ancient stores of the chain Plus, which was bought by Lidl in 2010.
These openings bring the number of outlets in Bulgaria to 37. The German distributor is planning further openings and should have 40 stores by the end of 2011.
