Residents in Woodbridge may soon have a new grocery option. Signs for Lidl, a popular discount grocer, have appeared in the Smoketown Stations shopping center on Prince William Parkway. The signs are placed at the former site of 2nd and Charles, a bookstore that closed its doors earlier this year.
Lidl, known for its budget-friendly groceries and streamlined shopping experience, has not confirmed its plans for the site. In an email, Lidl representative Bridget Johnson stated, “We announce store openings a month in advance. If there are future updates regarding Lidl US stores in the Woodbridge area, we will reach out.”
Attempts to confirm the plans with property management firm Kimco Realty have gone unanswered.
The Smoketown Stations location would join Lidl’s other nearby stores in Lake Ridge and near Dumfries, further expanding its presence in Prince William County.
A Total Wine store opened last week in the same shopping plaza.
