Lidl Magyarország posted a net profit of HUF 34.6 billion in the business year ending 28 February 2025, up from HUF 26.4 billion a year earlier. Net sales revenue increased to HUF 1,485.8 billion, compared with HUF 1,325.9 billion in the previous financial year.
During the financial year, the company invested a record HUF 74.7 billion in its domestic operations, supporting store modernisation, logistics infrastructure and network expansion. The retailer currently operates 220 stores nationwide, making it one of the country’s most extensive supermarket networks.
More than 10,000 employees
Lidl remains one of Hungary’s largest private-sector employers. The company now employs almost 10,500 people, while spending more than HUF 100 billion annually on wages, benefits and other personnel-related expenses.
In recent years, Lidl has repeatedly announced wage increases for store employees, warehouse staff and managers as it seeks to retain skilled workers in Hungary’s tight labour market.
Hungarian suppliers gain from international network
Beyond its domestic retail operations, Lidl continues to play a significant role in promoting Hungarian products abroad. The company said that, through its international purchasing network, Hungarian goods worth HUF 160 billion were exported to Lidl stores across Europe during the financial year, representing a 15% increase compared with the previous year.
