Lidl opened this supermarket at the eastern end of the town in 2011. Inevitably, Lytham being a rather upmarket place, there were a minority of people who felt Lidl, being a "deep discounter", was not the sort of store the town wanted. But like most places, there are plenty of people feeling the financial pinch, so most people seemed supportive. It has been built on a site formerly occupied by library book supplier Holt Jackson, who had relocated to Preston.
