CHARLOTTESVILLE (WINA) – The Lidl store that opened just two years ago at 29th place is closing. A Lidl U.S. statement says “after a thorough review of the performance of our store network, we made the difficult decision to close the store in (Albemarle County) July 16.”

The statement continues, “this was an underperforming location, and we made the strategic decision to close this location so we can focus on the locations that are closer and more convenient to more of our customers and where we are seeing significant growth.”

The store only opened in July 2021.
