In ireland Lidl and Aldi are everywhere.  I believe it was set up by 2 brothers who split into the seperate entities.  

Anyway pre the global recession days which hit Ireland hard,  we all had loads of money and nobody wanted to be seen shopping there.  It was full of all the immigrants.  Eastern Europeans,  Africans etc.  

Then the recession hit and hardly anyway was doing good.  Now nobody wanted to be seen in the posh shops and most couldn't afford anyway.  So the Irish flooded into the Aldi and Lidl stores.  

It's now super popular. Very cheap but also very high quality.  They source a lot of their stuff from Ireland too.  They also began sponsoring lots of Irish things like sporting competitions.  Their image is really good now.  Their popularity is growing massively and they are spreading more and more.
