Supplier Information

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?

As one of the UK’s fastest growing food retailers, our continued success is underpinned by one promise: being ‘Big on Quality, Lidl on Price’.

We always start with the customer experience and work backwards and we work with suppliers that have the same drive to feed the nation with great  quality products at everyday low prices.

HOW WE WORK WITH SUPPLIERS

The Groceries Supply Code of Practice (GSCOP) ensures the largest UK grocery retailers deal fairly and lawfully with their suppliers.

GSCOP governs all Lidl GB supply agreements of groceries for resale in the UK. As a responsible retailer, we are committed to comply with the code at all times. We train our buyers in GSCOP annually, as well as other supplier-facing departments such as Buying Administration, Quality Assurance, Merchant Ledger, and Artwork & Packaging Design.
 

SUPPLIER TESTIMONIALS

Griffiths Family Farm

“The Griffiths family have been working with Lidl for over ten years and they have grown together as a team. The business originally started delivering a handful of products into one depot, on weekly pricing, we are now on a long term contract supplying a number of depots across a wide range of products. We have been able to meet Lidl’s growth over the last decade, becoming a strategic partner and continue to work together on a number of exciting future projects. We share the same values and commitment to protect the environment and ensure the highest welfare standards are achieved at all times.”
