CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (CBS19 NEWS) -- The Lidl store located in 29th Place is closing down.

According to the company, the last day for the location will be July 16.

The store opened in July 2021.

Lidl US released this statement:

After a thorough review of the performance of our store network, we made the difficult decision to close the store in Charlottesville on July 16. This was an underperforming location, and we made the strategic decision to close this location so we can focus on the locations that are closer and more convenient to more of our customers and where we are seeing significant growth.

We appreciate the contributions team members in Charlottesville have made and want them to be part of our growing network of stores. We are offering all employees a position at another Lidl store in the area and are working closely with them on the transition.
