The supermarket wars between two rival chains are over in a Lincolnshire town
Market Deeping will get a budget supermarket – believed to be an Aldi – a year after a Lidl was rejected for the town.
Lidl had hoped to build on an out-of-town store off Peterborough Road, despite pleas from town centre traders to reconsider. Speaking on behalf of the application, Councillor Virginia Moran said: “I don’t mind who comes to the retail space but our residents desperately need another supermarket.”“A second supermarket of any description would assist the majority of the people in the Deepings a great deal.”Councillor Ashley Baxter said: “We have dozens of petrol stations within a few miles. If you have a car, you can go get petrol. If you don’t have a car, it is relatively difficult to go get groceries.
Christina Weguelin, speaking on behalf of the landowners, said a delay in getting the application through the planning system had “helped us bring you the best site we can”.Voting in favour of the development, Councillor Phil Dilks said: “This application will support the economy of the town centre of the Deepings and I have no hesitation in proposing that we approve the recommendation.”
