New West Ealing Lidl set to open next week on former Wilko site

Currently Lidl operates its West Ealing branch across the road to where the new branch.  It says the new store is over 300% bigger than the existing one and will offer a larger range of Lidl products. It will also employ an additional 10 people as well as the existing West Ealing staff.

Grant Shulton, Regional Head of Property at Lidl GB, said: “Our previous site on The Broadway has served the West Ealing community for nearly 15 years, so we’re thrilled to be able to offer an enhanced shopping experience just across the road. We can’t wait to welcome both new and loyal customers through the doors as we’re confident they’ll love their new Lidl as much as we do.”
