According to JM, the Lidl group has been authorised to operate in Funchal for almost a year but has chosen not to.
The company announced an investment of 100 million euros in the regional market, offered training to 150 workers, and obtained the licensing of two spaces. However, it appears that the supermarket chain has missed all the deadlines communicated with regard to creating their stores in Madeira, and has not reacted to the rejection of their project at Largo Severiano Ferraz.
