About

German supermarket group Lidl is set to expand its presence in Central and Eastern Europe, and has recently announced plans to open 20 new stores in Romania before the end of 2019. Staying closely aligned to the company’s senior management and advising on business issues connected with this expansion, Lidl’s Romanian legal team has been highlighted for its support to the Romanian arm of the company, which employs over 5,500 people in the country. With a compact team containing diligent and thorough legal counsel, the department has received praise from industry sources for its coverage of legal, compliance and commercial challenges that arise during the supermarket’s activities in one of its growing entities in the Central and Eastern European region.
