The latest addition brings the total number of Lidl stores in the Republic of Ireland to 161, with over 4,200 employees.

A unique feature to the building in Shankill is its green roof, which is partially covered in vegetation, the company says this absorbs rainwater and provides insulation, reducing the need for in store drainage systems.

Free charging points are also in place for shoppers using electric vehicles.

The supermarket chain recently introduced segregated recycling stations at the end of checkouts in all stores across Ireland.

Customers can remove any unwanted packaging and recycle it in-store once they're finished shopping.
