In the 90s, a couple of German supermarkets arrived in the UK and made new homes here. Lidl and Aldi promised all of your household and kitchen essentials for cheaper than the established British giants, with a few middle-aisle bargains to boot.
They've done pretty well for themselves, but they weren't the only Europeans to touch down here. You don't see their name anymore though - unless you've still got a yellow and black carrier bag with a dog printed on it, stashed in your cupboard.
They were called Netto, hailing from Denmark. They promised much of the same as their German friends, but unlike them, they didn't stand the test of time.
