Lidl was set up in Germany in 1930 when Josef Schwarz became a partner in a company called Südfrüchte Großhandlung Lidl & Co. This had been established by Anton Lidl since at least 1858 under the name & Cie, specialising in the sale of exotic fruits. Schwarz renamed the company Lidl & Schwarz KG and expanded into a food wholesaler. In 1977, under his son Dieter Schwarz, the Schwarz Group began to focus on discount markets and larger supermarkets. Dieter wasn't keen on using his own name for this, as the name Schwarz-Markt translates to 'black market'. Recommended reading: He wanted to use the name of his father's former business partner, but legal reasons prevented him from doing so. When he discovered a newspaper article about a painter and retired schoolteacher Ludwig Lidl, he bought the rights to the name from him for 1,000 German marks. From there, the Lidl name was used, and it expanded into many countries over time.
