Staff at a newly-built multi-million pound supermarket on the outskirts of Swansea are getting ready to open the store later this week. Back in February, 2021, supermarket giant Lidl announced plans to open a new store in Gorseinon Road, Penllergaer, on the site of the former Poundstretcher bargain store. The company had to apply to Swansea Council for planning permission - which was given later that year.
The supermarket chain, which already has popular stores around the city in Penlan, Llansamlet and at Parc Tawe in the city centre, has confirmed that the new Penllergaer store will open to the public on Thursday, November 24.
It will stock all the usual food, drink and basic household items and will have parking for both cars and bicycles. WalesOnline also understands it will have an in-store bakery and customer toilets.
