The new Lidl distribution center in central region

12 August 2024

More than 80 Portuguese companies and an engineering complexity that is rare in Portugal: this is the new Lidl distribution center, covering an area of approximately 54 thousand square meters, a project in which GEOVIA played an important role in supervising the construction.

Located in a former quarry and landfill that has been inactive since year 2000, this new distribution center involved reusing the products from the landfill, which required earthworks of almost 2 million cubic meters.
Over the course of 28 months, GEOVIA had a laboratory team dedicated exclusively to the project, monitoring landfills and assessing the strength of the concrete paving. Valued at around 110 million euros, this new distribution center will help improve the supply of Lidl stores in the central region.
