LIDL to Open in Perry Hall on Wednesday

Perry Hall is getting a new grocery store.

LIDL will open its doors on Wednesday morning, Jan. 22 on Silver Spring Road. According to its website, the European-based grocery store is operating in 32 countries and started in Germany in the late 1970s.

LIDL will be located across the street from ALDI, another German-based grocery store on Silver Spring Road.

There has been an empty spot on Silver Spring Road since the old Mars Supermarkets closed in the summer of 2016. Many Mars locations were bought and became Weis Markets, but the old Mars location has remained vacant for the past four years, Finally, the Silver Spring Road location will now be filled with a grocery store.

“Ever since the Mars supermarket closed in 2016, I have pushed to fill this vacant space at Belair and Silver Spring Roads,” said Councilman David Marks.

“Instead of building across from Dunfield Road or at Forge Road, our office encouraged LIDL to repurpose the Mars site.”
LIDL will open two stores in Baltimore County on Wednesday as Baltimore County Executive John Olszewski, Jr. announced on his social media page that a store will also open in Catonsville.

“See you Wednesday morning, Lidl… Welcome to Baltimore County,” Olszewski wrote.
