Profit Levels
I heard on the radio that one of the reasons that "LIDL is cheaper" is that they keep their profit levels to 2% whereas Tesco and Sainsbury's expect 7%. Is this true? 86.41.149.8 08:19, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- No idea. Which radio station? Try citing a reliable source...--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 18:39, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
The profit level ranges between 2 and 3%. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.36.213.82 (talk) 23:19, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
Revenue is not 45 billion $ anymore.
2008:59 billion € (75 billion $).
Thats a difference

- The profit level?
:::::::::: - are sufficient . If , the company . Do business in third world countries. "Lidl" - not a non-profit organization.. Public understatement of profits. Profitable. From one point of view. Taxation. In third world countries. Where everything is so vague and vague.Apepper123 (talk) 13:24, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
Controversy
The controversy section is far too long. I am sure that other supermarkets have had just as much controversy over the years. It appears that Wikipedia has a vendetta against Lidl! Cls14 (talk) 12:21, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
Agreed. Appalled by this bias compared to their main competitor Aldi - someone needs to investigate editors use of this site for deliberately denigrating a company. Not ethical or fair AndeanaPaul (talk) 17:59, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
Hello. Mentioning facts is not denigration. Bad things are cited on many articles about companies. Lists of controversies and criticisms are sometimes very long. Please see the article Criticism of Amazon, for example. If you think the Aldi page is missing controversies, you may obviously add them there if you can provide reliable sources. I think consumers need to know the facts so that they can make informed choices. Lidl is one the large multinational corporations that need to come under scrutiny.
