In 2025, the companies operating under Lidl Romania recorded a consolidated net turnover of over RON 27.3 billion, an increase of more than 10% compared to 2024. The group also reported over RON 954 million in investments and more than RON 3 billion in contributions to the state budget.

Lidl Romania stated that it will fully reinvest the profit generated in 2025 in Romania, supporting an extensive development plan for 2026. This includes the opening of more than 40 new stores nationwide, the creation of approximately 1,000 new jobs, and an expected 10% organic growth in volumes sourced from local producers.

The company emphasized that, amid persistent inflationary pressure and rising supply chain costs, its priority remains protecting customers’ purchasing power without compromising product quality. According to the company, it absorbed a significant share of cost increases, including the impact of VAT adjustments on essential product categories during August–September, to limit price pass-through to consumers.

The decision to reinvest all 2025 profits locally is presented as part of a long-term commitment to customers, local partners, and the Romanian economy, regardless of economic conditions.

In 2025, Lidl Romania contributed over RON 3 billion to the state budget, including taxes, contributions, and social security payments for nearly 14,000 employees at year-end, as well as more than RON 113 million in environmental taxes.

The company facilitated exports of Romanian products worth EUR 78 million to 25 European markets, representing a 24% increase compared to the previous year, strengthening the international visibility of Romanian goods.

Employees are described as a central pillar of Lidl România’s development strategy. The company continues investing in job creation and competitive benefits.

For 2026, Lidl plans salary increases for all employees. The lowest salary in the company is currently 31% above the national gross minimum wage, complemented by a benefits package including a 13th salary, meal vouchers, annual bonuses, health insurance, bonuses, and family support programs.
