Discounters in the United Kingdom - Research and Markets

Value sales of discounters increased to great heights in 2022. Double-digit growth was only previously seen in 2020 when the pandemic initially emerged and during times of recession. Local consumers have shifted the majority of their weekly shopping from their standard traditional full-priced supermarkets to the two main discounters in the UK, Aldi and Lidl.
