More Than 100 New ‘Kickstart’ Products to Hit Lidl Ireland Shelves
More than 100 artisan products from over 45 Irish producers participating in Lidl Ireland’s Kickstart Supplier Development Programme will land on shelves across Lidl’s 222 stores nationwide from Thursday, September 19th for a limited time, while stocks last.
From high-quality convenience foods, fish and meat produce, to beauty, baking, ice cream, condiments and beers as well as the programme’s first ever pet product, this year’s Kickstart assortment will have something for everyone, offering consumers a greater choice of sustainable products, a variety of health-conscious food options and restaurant-quality food products to try at home.
This year’s Kickstart lineup features innovative sustainable products including sisters Aisling & Sadhbh Wood’s Bean Around Exfoliating Coffee Bars made from used coffee beans, Hayden Smyth’s Pup Pup Dental Chews, a sustainable insect-based dog treat, and delicious healthy alternatives such Emi Takakura’s Slice of Life Pizza, a frozen high protein pizza with a cauliflower crust made with all-natural ingredients and recyclable packaging.
Offering a variety of culinary delights to try at home, Lidl shoppers can expect to see an extensive range of flavours stocked to satisfy adventurous tastebuds, such as David Keane’s DK Connemara Oysters and Niall Sabongi’s Smoked Haddock Lasagne, celebrating the heritage and high-quality seafood products sourced from the Irish sea, and Conor Sweeny’s Dae Bites, delicious brownie and cookie bites which are free from 13 of the 14 top allergens.
To Lidl customers’ delight, more established brands will also be on sale including the iconic Donegal soft drink, Football Special, Rachel Nolan’s dairy-free, vegan ice cream Nobó Frozen Goodness and Aisling Tuck’s Naked Bakes Cookie Dough available for the first time on Lidl shelves while stocks last.
Speaking as the products hit Lidl’s shelves, Kate O’Driscoll, Supplier Development Manager at Lidl Ireland and Northern Ireland said: “It is a very exciting and proud day for our Kickstart suppliers as they see their range of more than 100 products land on Lidl shelves in every one of our 222 stores across the island of Ireland. This is the cumulation of six months of hard work, collaborating with our in-house experts and receiving practical guidance on how to scale production, drive production efficiency, as well as product development, branding and packaging support, allowing these suppliers to optimise this opportunity and scale for success. We’re looking forward to seeing our customers' response to these new innovative products.”
Lidl’s Kickstart Supplier Development Programme is just one of the many ways in which the retailer supports the Irish agri-food industry as it continues to give Irish producers unrivalled access to local and international markets supporting the growth and success of Irish produce worldwide. To date, the retailer has invested more than €30 million in supporting over 250 Irish producers through the Kickstart Development Programme.
