Superettes are in danger of becoming victims of Sunday openings: “I used to make 30,000 euros on Sundays, now only 20,000 euros”

Aldi and Lidl are stepping up the battle to open on Sundays, but how important is the Sunday opening really? HLN delves into the latest figures and discovers that we shop en masse more in the large supermarkets on Sundays. But we also note that there is one loser in the supermarket war: the superettes. “In Ghent, our daily turnover on Sundays has gone from 30,000 euros to 20,000 euros,” says Bert Lambregts (46), self-employed Delhaize manager.
