For many Lidl fans, shopping could soon change.

Because the discounter appears to be significantly shorter in a popular product line.

Kassel – At Lidl, customers keep coming across innovations.

The latest change at the discounter even caused a lot of positive feedback on social media.

Lidl had placed so-called save me bags in some branches.

But an upcoming innovation is likely to make consumers far less happy.

As the

Lebensmittelzeitung

reports, the discounter Lidl is now pulling the rip cord in one product area.

Lidl is withdrawing from the division: what will soon change at the discounter

For the coming year 2023, Lidl wants to offer significantly fewer goods from the non-food sector.

As a result, many offers such as clothing, electronics and household appliances will soon be much less part of the supermarket range.

As the

Lebensmittelzeitung

reports, this is due to falling demand and the discounter's logistics problems.

Lidl is well below the target with non-food products, as insiders are said to have revealed to the newspaper.

That is why the orders for 2023 in this area were “drastically lower” than in previous years.

The increasing frugality of customers is also a factor.

Accordingly, a Lidl manager told the newspaper that inflation is having a disproportionate effect on its customers.

This is one of the reasons why the "planned purchases in the non-food sector" have collapsed significantly.

An improvement in consumer sentiment is “not foreseeable”.

However, insiders told the

Lebensmittelzeitung

that Lidl was by no means alone with its problems.

Aldi is also reporting a drop in sales in the non-food sector.

A ruling on patent law meant that the discounter had to make changes to the Monsieur Cuisine Connect.

However, it is unclear whether this non-food blockbuster will also be affected by the lower orders.
