German supermarket chain Lidl has submitted plans for a new supermarket in Ripon.

The company has tabled the proposal for St Michael’s Retail Park in the city following an online consultation.

Lidl has planned for a 1,100 square metre store, which it says will create up to 40 new full time and part time jobs.

The company announced its intention to expand into the city last year and earmarked the £10 million retail park as its preferred location.

Now, plans for the supermarket have been lodged to Harrogate Borough Council which will make a decision on the development at a later date.

A spokesperson from Lidl GB said:

“Many people have welcomed the proposed Lidl store, which would bring competition, increasing choice and providing a boost to the local economy through job creation. 
“Many also mentioned that a store on this site would reduce the need to travel out of the city to shop and therefore keep expenditure in Ripon. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the local community for their support so far and we look forward to further sharing and discussing our plans with them.”


The plan for Ripon comes as Lidl has also tabled a proposal for its first Harrogate store on the on the site of the former Lookers car dealership on Knaresborough Road.
