The final shelves are being stacked as a new discount supermarket prepares to open in Hinckley tomorrow morning.

Shoppers at the new Lidl, off Coventry Road, have been promised offers on a doll's house, an electric mower and a contact grill in the first week.

It is set to launch at 8am.

Activities will be going on throughout the opening day after the ribbon is cut, including face painting near the store's entrance.

The store includes a bakery, customer toilet, baby changing and parking for both cars and bicycles.

Lidl is moving from its outlet in Hawley Road into the new shop, built on the site of the former HJ Hall sock factory, which was demolished in 2017.

Andrew Hodgkinson, Lidl GB regional head of property, said: “We look forward to welcoming everyone to our new store."

Special offers in the first week will include a doll’s house for £19.99 from Thursday, August 22, an electric start self-propelled petrol lawnmower for £169 from Friday, August 23, and a contact grill for £19.99 from Saturday, August 24.

There is also a 'Taste of Iberia' discount food section, with an array of products inspired by Spanish and Portuguese cuisine.

Vehicles will access the car park off Marchant Road and there are steps with metal railings up to the store in Coventry Road.

Staff from the Hawley Road store are moving over to the new site, with the venture creating up to 20 new jobs.

Creating the new store is part of Lidl’s ongoing expansion and regeneration plans in the UK which will see it open more than 50 new stores a year.
