A spokesperson for the retailer, however, declined to comment on the report when contacted by just-food.
“Please understand that we are currently not in a position to confirm this information as the investment plans for our Finnish operations for next year are not yet completed.”
Lidl opened its first stores in Finland in 2002 and now operates 141 throughout the country in regions including Forssa, Iisalmi, Jyvaskyla and Kaarina.
