THE HISTORY OF LIDL IN IRELAND
LIDL first opened in Germany in 1973.
Back then, it employed just three people, stocking 500 product lines.
The first Irish store, located just off Molesworth Street in Dublin, was opened in 1999.
This was Lidl's first entry into the Irish grocery market.
Then, Lidl opened more stores in 2000, in Limerick, Letterkenny, Mullingar, Athlone, Cavan, Ballinasloe and Portlaoise.
Now, the retailer has over 180 stores and three distribution centres, employing over 6,000 people.
They work with a network of more than 260 Irish suppliers from the communities they operate in.

Dublin Airport unsigned passport warning as summer travel ramps up
With summer travel expected to hit record levels at Dublin Airport, an important passport warning has been issued to Irish travellers. More than 10 million passengers are set to pass through the airport this summer, marking the busiest season in its history. Over June, July, and August, approximately 3.5 million travellers are expected each month, with flights to 190 destinations operated by 43 airlines. Earlier this week, Managing Director Gary McLean said the airport is focused on ensuring a smooth, enjoyable experience for all. He said: "Summer 2025 is set to be the busiest on record at Dublin Airport and we're determined to make it the best ever for passenger standards. Our passenger satisfaction scores hit an all-time high last year but we're not resting on our laurels, we're rolling out a whole host of further improvements, building on the huge amount we've done over the past three years and continuous passenger feedback. Our aim is to put a smile on the face of every person - young and old - that walks through our doors." Airport operator daa is working hard to keep security wait times under 20 minutes for at least 90% of passengers, despite record daily traffic reaching over 120,000 travelers on peak days. Meanwhile, more seating, family zones, hydration stations and a new Dublin Airport app packed with real-time updates and offers aim to improve the overall journey. However, amid these welcome improvements, a lesser-known but crucial issue has come to light - many flyers are forgetting to sign their Irish passport. One passenger recently shared their experience of being stopped at Dublin Airport for an unsigned passport. They said: "I'm not a stranger to travelling abroad, but on a recent holiday I was given a warning while flying out of Dublin Airport. An airline employee informed me that I was missing a little known detail on my passport. While I had noticed the small space for my signature, I didn't realise it was necessary for it to be signed before I got on a plane. "I've had the same passport for nearly four years and all that time I hadn't written down my signature. Within that time frame, I had also travelled within Europe and to America without being told that it was a requirement. "However, after my experience at Dublin Airport, I was told by several other people that they had also been asked recently to make sure their Irish passport was properly signed too before departing." The confusion partly stems from the passport's design, updated in 2013. Previously, the signature line was prominently placed on the data page beneath the photograph. The current version features a smaller signature space on page three, near the binding, which is easier to overlook. The Irish Passport Service has highlighted how important it is to ensure that your passport is signed. Parents should note that there are different rules for children, depending on their age and ability. They stated: "When you receive your passport, you should sign it. If it is a child's passport, the child should sign it. If the child is not able to sign their name, it should be left blank." Signing your passport is essential for identity verification and validates the document for travel. Meanwhile, the Government is working on a redesigned Irish passport, anticipated for launch in the second quarter of 2026.

Your rights if hotel refuses to serve Irish food on your holiday abroad
With the summer holiday season fast approaching, many people across Ireland are preparing for long-awaited sunshine getaways. But for one traveller, a dream trip turned into what she describes as a complete "nightmare". Susan Edwards, 69, from Westerhope in Newcastle upon Tyne, paid €890 for a seven-night all-inclusive holiday at the Lido Corfu Sun Hotel in Greece. She had been looking forward to relaxing with her family, enjoying warm weather, good food and a much-needed break. Instead, she found herself "sick to death of looking at rice" as the largely local food menu left her group frustrated. Susan claimed there was "no English food" available, telling Newcastle Chronicle: "It was all-inclusive, £750 (€890) each we paid and there was no food we could eat. I have to be careful because I have ulcerative colitis so there's certain things I can't eat. "On a morning you could have toast, a hard boiled egg or something in sauce. There was no bacon. For breakfast there was mozzarella and sliced tomatoes. There was no hot bacon or sausage. "We got chips one day. One day out of the whole lot. There was fish, sardines and rice - I was sick to death of looking at rice. There was pasta and salads, none of this was marked (labelled). One night there was a Greek night and they had kebabs, I couldn't eat that. It's the worst holiday I've ever been on." After lodging a complaint with TUI, the holiday provider offered her £100 (€119) in travel vouchers - which she has since declined. Now, consumer rights expert Helen Dewdney, also known as The Complaining Cow, is weighing in on the issue and what Irish travellers can do if they feel misled on a package holiday. In Ireland, package holiday rights are protected under the EU Package Travel Directive (EU 2015/2302) and the Package Holidays and Travel Trade Act 1995. In the UK, they are covered by the Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018. Helen told Mirror UK: "A package holiday consists or two or more components, such as accommodation and flight or transfers, and must last longer than 24 hours or at the very least have an overnight element. The organiser (i.e. the travel company with which you booked) is liable for the failures of hoteliers, suppliers and services within the contract. "The organiser must not provide misleading information. If the holiday does not match the description, you will be entitled to redress. The organiser must clearly state the details of the booking in a Standard Information Form, before you make any payment. The Form must include specifics of any arrangements: dates, times, costs, meals, excursions included/excluded, activities, transportation, cancellation fees, contact details for the package organiser, information on compulsory/voluntary insurance regarding repatriation in the event of illness/death/accident, and/or the cost of termination of the contract by the traveller." She added: "You are entitled to redress for the disappointment and distress caused by things going wrong. The amount will be dependent on what and for how much of the holiday. Make sure you take out travel insurance at the same time you book your holiday. You never know what might happen between now and then!' "Is it reasonable to claim for a lack of 'English food' on a continental holiday? Probably not. However, at least one TUI customer has succeeded in claiming limited compensation for this alleged breach, although she has got to buy another holiday to use it!" A spokesperson for TUI UK and Ireland said: "Our priority is to ensure customers have the best possible holiday experience, so we are sorry to hear that Mrs Edwards felt dissatisfied with her holiday. We have been in touch directly with Mrs Edwards to come to a resolution."
