Lidl has declined to give an update on its plans for a Ripon supermarket — more than 18 months after it received planning permission.

The German retailer was given the go-ahead to build a supermarket alongside M&S Food at St Michael’s Retail Park in September 2021.

At the time Lidl said it would create up to 40 jobs and occupy three units at the £10m Rotary Way site, which opened in 2020.

But there have been no updates since, prompting the Stray Ferret to ask the company this week if it still planned to proceed with the scheme and, if so, when work would start.

The company has so far declined to respond.





Lidl submitted its Ripon planning application in May 2021 following a virtual consultation.

Since then Harrogate's first Lidl has opened at the former Lookers car dealership on Knaresborough Road.

There is also a Lidl on Chain Lane in Knaresborough.
