Abstract

The emergence of the "low cost" models and the food hard discount stores constituted real strategic breaks. What happens when we leave this model by adopting major strategic reorientations? In 2012, the French Lidl top management announced a major strategy change of the "low cost" food specialist. A comprehensive plan is then implemented both in terms of investment and organization of stores and in terms of communication and image change of the retailer. Based on two surveys of French consumers, conducted before (2011) and after (2016) the Lidl strategic plan, we asked about consumer perceptions of the image of Food hard discounter of Lidl. Our results show a perceived "repositioning" of Lidl, in terms of image and a relative gain in competitiveness.
