Russians supermarket expands: Mere becomes competition for Aldi, Lidl & Co.

Other supermarket chains such as Real , Edeka , Rewe , Aldi * & Co. must therefore dress a little warmer. After all, they are already vying with each other in the newly occupied urban area of ​​the eastern metropolis of Halle for the favor of almost 100,000 potential consumers. 

The Mere makers have apparently already chosen the next location for another store opening. In Homburg they are still in negotiations with politics. However, this is impressed by the new line-up in the discounter series. Certain unfounded fears of contact only have to be cleared out of the way, it is said. The high customer frequency already makes it clear that Mere is a serious player.
