Major discount retailer Lidl has lodged hybrid plans for a transformation of its Bloxwich site in Walsall.

Lidl is looking for outline planning to demolish the four existing warehouse buildings it’s operated and owned since 2008 and build 420,000 sq ft of warehouse and distribution space in its place.

In the other application, Lidl is seeking full planning permission for the erection of a 23,500 sq ft foodstore with 122 car parking spaces.

Located near Newfield Close, the new foodstore would employ up to 40 staff.

Walsall Council is expected to make a decision on the plans by mid-March.
