Construction begins on new Lidl store in Brough
Building work has started on a new Lidl store in Brough which is due to open next year.The new supermarket on Welton Road could create about 40 jobs, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS).It will have a different appearance to most Lidl stores across the country, with red brickwork, in order for the building to better align with the aesthetic of its surroundings.East Riding of Yorkshire Council received more than 140 objections about traffic concerns after the plans were initially approved in 2022. They were later amended.
Councillors Richard Meredith, Terry Gill and Pat Smith had called for the original application to be refused due to fears it would be too close to homes and create additional traffic.According to LDRS, during a planning meeting in 2022, Gill said: "When I've asked people about this they say they'd love a Lidl because it would bring a bit more competition, but when I tell them where it will be they ask if I'm joking."A further planning application was submitted to the council in 2024 proposing a number of changes including building the store slightly further south, on the same site, to create more space between the store and the properties to the north.Liam Schofield, regional head of property at Lidl GB, said: "This state-of-the-art store will mean local shoppers no longer have to travel to Hull."

Sainsbury's is trialling electronic shelf-edge labels in select larger stores across the UK The digital tags allow real-time price updates and could pave the way for dynamic pricing Items like alcohol and health products are among the first to feature the new labels The move follows similar trials by Asda, Waitrose, Morrisons, Lidl, and the Co-op Supporters say the system improves efficiency, reduces paper waste, and boosts transparency A major UK supermarket may be quietly ringing in the end of paper price tags, as it joins a growing list of retailers trialling electronic shelf-edge labels - a change that could pave the way for real-time, Uber-style pricing. Sainsbury's has rolled out the digital price tags in select larger stores as part of a limited trial. The new labels have appeared on items like beers, wines, spirits, and health products. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Powered by a wireless network, the technology allows prices to be updated remotely at the click of a button - replacing the age-old manual process of swapping out paper tickets. (Photo:) | Getty Images Is dynamic pricing coming? The small digital displays show product prices and information, and unlike static paper tags, they're linked to a central database and can be updated wirelessly - instantly and accurately. This marks more than just a convenience for staff. The system opens the door to dynamic pricing, where costs could rise or fall in real time based on demand - similar to how ride-hailing apps operate during peak hours. Sainsbury's has partnered with specialist firm Harrison Retail to create new shelf fixings designed to house the sleek displays. A spokesperson confirmed the trial to The Grocer, adding there was "nothing further" to share at this stage. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad The supermarket joins rivals Asda, Waitrose, Morrisons, and Lidl, who are all exploring similar upgrades. The Co-op is leading the charge, announcing plans to roll out digital labels across its entire network of 2,400 stores by the end of 2026. Its head of operations, Steven Logue, highlighted the environmental and operational benefits: "The electronic labels have the potential to enhance product information and transparency, avoid paper waste, and make online order picking easier.' Lidl has echoed the eco-friendly promise, estimating a potential saving of 206 tonnes of carbon annually by reducing paper, packaging, and ink use.
