New Lidl opens in Ashburn on Nov. 20

Lidl will open its newest store in Ashburn on Wednesday, Nov. 20, at 8 a.m.

The new Lidl food market is located at 44175 Russell Branch Parkway in Ashburn. A ribbon cutting event begins at 7:40 a.m., and kicks off a weekend of special offers, giveaways, and prizes.

The store will be Lidl’s second in Ashburn and 12th in the D.C. area, and will be open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday-Sunday.

Lidl is known for its low prices and a study by the University of North Carolina found grocery stores located near Lidl food markets dropped their prices for individual products by as much as 55 percent.

Our Ashburn Magazine also recently conducted an independent price check in the area, and found Lidl prices to be the lowest among all supermarkets surveyed.

“As a resident of Ashburn, I’m thrilled to see Lidl open a second location that offers its convenient, simple shopping experience to more customers in the area,” said new store manager Lynn Delaney. “I am also excited to have such a talented team ready to serve our Ashburn customers, that reflects the vibrant, diverse community of Ashburn as a whole.”

Some grand opening specials at the Ashburn store include:

The first 100 customers will be presented with gift cards ranging from $5 to $100 each.

Shoppers can get free samples of an array of Lidl’s products and a complimentary Lidl reusable bag while supplies last.

Games, activities, prizes, special deals and giveaways throughout grand opening weekend.
