On 20 March supermarket chain Lidl announced that it will build a new distribution centre in Weert. From 2010 onwards it will employ 200 employees and in the long run 300. Lidl has succeeded in increasing its national market share by 20% to 4.8%. For the project, Lidl will cooperate with the regional industry fund.
