LIDL NOW HAS 143 stores and 3,900 staff in Ireland.
The supermarket giant is opening its two newest shops today in Santry and Mullingar.
The two new locations in Omni Park and Patrick Street have created 63 new jobs, which have been filled with a recruitment process “across the two localities”.
So far this year, six new Lidl stores have been opened in Ireland. Another nine have undergone extensive refurbishments.
“The excitement is building as we prepare to open our two new stores in Dublin and Westmeath, just in time for Christmas,” said Head of Communications Aoife Clarke.
The developments are part of the wider supermarket wars at play across the country as discount retailers wrangle a large portion of the market away from traditional players Tesco and SuperValu.
The latest figures, released by Kantar in November, showed the onward march of German outlets Aldi and Lidl with both posting double-digit increases in their trade on the equivalent period in 2013.

Eir have nothing but total and utter contempt for their customers, it’s the equivalent of climbing Mt Everest to get in contact with them!
@Brian Hunt: swapped to Three years ago and never looked back. Eir is a French company these days with horrific customer service. Worst company in the world to deal with bar none.
@Brian Hunt: At least you’ll get a good signal up there when you’ve reached the top. But,be prepared for a frosty reception if you do get through.
@John Doe Trump: I went in the opposite direction, couldn’t get signal for Three in my house
My 4g vanished for around 10 minutes earlier. I’ve been with gomo since just after they started, and this is only the second outage i can recall. Not bad for €9.99.
@honey badger: gomo is eir mate.
Just like Finkle was Einhorn
@Argus Romsworth: I know that. It’s also mentioned in the article…
@Argus Romsworth: laces out
Their technicians have to get up on the roof and adjust the wire coat hanger antenna.
I am with Eir years. Never any major issue. Find the data top notch. Only downside is trying to call them. It’d be easier get through to Trump
@Maniac 2000: You’ll get through to Trump on the mega phone. Make Eir Great Again
@Maniac 2000: well you obviously completely ignore the widely publicised contempt that they have for their customers ??
I….nt……er……n…..et …..
Three network has the same issues last week my data n credit was gone I only got my credit back yesterday after a week
Don’t go with Eir and you will not have this problem. They are an absolute unethical disgrace
Everything is routed through the Internet these days. Imagine some ship cuts more than one undersea cable, most of communication will be dead. Better prepare in advance and get some free to use radio equipment (CB, PMR) + mobile antennas for the car or balcony.
It was going slow yesterday too
have your say
