Although Lidl reached an outlet count of over 200 in 2023, it intends to continue its expansion, with a stated aim of opening 5-10 new outlets per year. It is also updating/renovating existing outlets.
As it stands, Lidl does not offer e-commerce in Finland and digital developments are lagging behind other retailers. Lidl piloted its Sportyfeel web store, which focused on sports nutrition, but also carried a limited number of other products, but the pilot ended in 2020.
New discounters could potentially launch in Finland following a key international acquisition. The leading Finnish variety store Tokmanni acquired the Swedish discounter chain Dollarstore in August 2023 and is optimistic about its future growth.

Discounters are chained retail outlets typically with a selling space of between 400 and 2,500 square metres. Stores have a primary focus on selling a limited range of foods, beverages, tobacco and non-groceries at budget prices, regularly via private label. Discounters can be classified as hard discounters and soft discounters. Hard discounters, first introduced by Aldi in Germany, are also known as limited-line discounters. Stores are typically 400-900 square metres and stock fewer than 1,000 product lines, largely in packaged groceries. Product range available is predominantly made up of private-label brands. Soft discounters are usually slightly larger than hard discounters, and are also known as extended-range discounters. Stores typically stock 1,000-4,000 product lines. As well as private-label and budget brands, stores commonly carry leading brands at discounted prices. Example brands include Aldi, Lidl, and Dia.
