While a second LIDL store in Athlone has been refused, the existing store is set to be transformed in a major upgrade.
Lidl has chosen Athlone for the development of its first new concept store in the region.
The new design would replace its existing branch on the Dublin road, and will have high ceilings and wide aisles as well as sustainability features including electric vehicle charger spaces, and a solar panel system.
The company is investing €10 million in the development which will employ 80 people during construction.
