under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for the proposed ALDI Grocery Store development (the “Project”) located at 951 and 1001 East Imperial Highway. In accordance with Section 15070 through Section 15075 (Negative Declaration Process) of the CEQA Guidelines, this Initial Study/Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared by the City of La Habra. Section 15070 of the CEQA Guidelines states the following with respect to the preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration: "A public agency shall prepare or have prepared a proposed negative declaration or mitigated negative declaration for a project subject to CEQA when: (a) The initial study shows that there is no substantial evidence, in light of the whole record before the agency, that the project may have a significant effect on the environment, or (b) The initial study identifies potentially significant effects, but: (1) Revisions in the project plans or proposals made by, or agreed to by the applicant before a proposed mitigated negative declaration and initial study are released for public review would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effect would occur, and (2) There is no substantial evidence, in light of the whole record before the agency that the project as revised may have a significant effect on the environment. As prescribed in Section 15070, an Initial Study has been prepared that analyzes the potential project‐related impacts anticipated to occur as a result of constructing an 18,783 square foot ALDI Food Market as proposed by the project applicant. Pursuant to Section 15071 of the CEQA Guidelines, the Initial Study/Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration includes: ▪ The location and a description of the proposed project (refer to Section 2.0); ▪ A comprehensive analysis of each environmental topic included in the City's environmental checklist (refer to Chapter 4.0); ▪ A proposed finding that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment (refer to Section 5.1); and ▪ Mitigation measures (refer to Section 5.2). 1.2 Determination of No Significant Impacts This Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared pursuant to Section 15070 through Section 15075 of the CEQA Guidelines as prescribed in Section 1.1, above. As indicated in Chapter 5.0 (Conclusions) of the document, no significant impacts will occur as a result of project implementation with the

The Corporate Social Responsibility in Lidl’s Communication Campaigns in Croatia and the UK Abstract The purpose of the paper was to investigate whether Lidl uses CSR communication in their Advertising and Communication Campaigns in two different business contexts, and if so, how. The paper built upon existing analyses of CSR Communication by analysing Lidl’s websites in both countries, and went step forward and analysed TV adverts of the company in both countries as well. The analysis discovered importance of the social context in using CSR to promote business, as well as a different communication management strategy where Lidl does not communicate with UK public as extensively as with the Croatian public due to different views on the CSR communication.

  • Lidl Has Finally Opened in Atlanta: How Will This Affect the Atlanta Supermarket Landscape?! Powder Springs - 1/16 Snellville - 1/30 Mableton - 2/13
    Lidl has finally opened in Atlanta: How will this affect the Atlanta supermarket landscape?! Powder Springs - 1/16 Snellville - 1/30 Mableton - 2/13 Lidl’s has three store-openings set for Atlanta this month. The first is Powder Springs on 1/16/19, followed by Snellville on 1/30/19 and Mableton on 2/13/19. If you haven’t been to a Lidl before, it’s a good-looking store and simple to shop. Very similar to an ALDI, but larger and with the same emphasis on house brands at an extreme discount to name brand products. Lidl ( 36,000 sf) has created an interesting store model for the US. Its stores are significantly larger than ALDI’s (12,000 -15,000 sf) and smaller than the traditional Kroger (45,000-80,000) or Publix store models (42,000- 48,000 sf). As heavily reported, LIDLs initial store openings in the US did not bring the traffic or volumes they hoped for. By opening three stores in the same size format, LIDL is taking a risk. Many (including me) feel that they should be opening in more dense markets and with smaller stores. continued retail specialists retail strategies retail specialists retail strategies My prediction is that these three openings will have minimal impact on the Atlanta “supermarket and real estate market. The Atlanta MSA already has over 340 grocery stores and another three is not going to change the landscape. First, these are all free-standing locations, so there’s no new supply of small shop space for lease.

  • Kaufland Australia Proposed Store Oakleigh South, Melbourne Economic Impact Assessment
    Kaufland Australia Proposed store Oakleigh South, Melbourne Economic Impact Assessment December 2018 Prepared by: Anthony Dimasi, Managing Director – Dimasi & Co [email protected] Prepared for Kaufland Australia Table of contents Executive summary 1 Introduction 5 Section 1: The supermarket sector – Australia and Victoria 6 Section 2: Kaufland Australia – store format and offer 13 Section 3: Economic Impact Assessment 20 3.1 Site location and context 21 3.2 Trade area analysis 23 3.3 Competition analysis 27 3.4 Estimated sales potential 28 3.5 Economic impacts 30 3.6 Net community benefit assessment 43 Executive summary The Supermarkets & Grocery Stores category is by far the most important retail category in Australia. Total sales recorded by Supermarkets & Grocery Stores as measured by the Australian Bureau of Statistics have increased from $64.5 billion at 2007 to $103.7 billion at 2017, recording average annual growth of 4.9% per annum – despite the impacts of the global financial crisis (GFC). Over this past decade the category has also increased its share of total Australian retail sales from 31.3% to 33.7%. For Victoria, similar trends are evident. Supermarkets and grocery stores’ sales have increased over the past decade at a similar rate to the national average – 4.5% versus 4.9%. The share of total retail sales directed to supermarkets and grocery stores by Victorians has also increased over this period, from 31.6% at 2007 to 32.8% at 2017. Given the importance of the Supermarkets & Grocery Stores category to both the Victorian retail sector and Victorian consumers, the entry of Kaufland into the supermarket sector brings with it enormous potential for significant consumer benefits, as well as broader economic benefits.

Thus, retail internationalization can be regarded as a growth strategy for top food retailers. However, opposite to manufacturers internationalization is for retailers still a new strategy so that globa- lization continues to accelerate. AT Kearney (2006) shows that since 2001 more than 50 diffe- rent retailers have entered 90 new markets. In this context our the aim of our paper is threefold.

  • Retail Supermarket Globalization: Who’S Winning?
    RETAIL SUPERMARKET GLOBALIZATION: WHO’S WINNING? October 2001 CORIOLISRESEARCH Coriolis Research Ltd. is a strategic market research firm founded in 1997 and based in Auckland, New Zealand. Coriolis primarily works with clients in the food and fast moving consumer goods supply chain, from primary producers to retailers. In addition to working with clients, Coriolis regularly produces reports on current industry topics. Recent reports have included an analysis of the impact of the arrival of the German supermarket chain Aldi in Australia, answering the question: “Will selling groceries over the internet ever work?,” and this analysis of retail supermarket globalization. ! The lead researcher on this report was Tim Morris, one of the founding partners of Coriolis Research. Tim graduated from Cornell University in New York with a degree in Agricultural Economics, with a specialisation in Food Industry Management. Tim has worked for a number of international retailers and manufacturers, including Nestlé, Dreyer’s Ice Cream, Kraft/General Foods, Safeway and Woolworths New Zealand. Before helping to found Coriolis Research, Tim was a consultant for Swander Pace (now part of Kurt Salmon) in San Francisco, where he worked on management consulting and acquisition projects for clients including Danone, Heinz, Bestfoods and ConAgra. ! The coriolis force, named for French physicist Gaspard Coriolis (1792-1843), may be seen on a large scale in the movement of winds and ocean currents on the rotating earth. It dominates weather patterns, producing the counterclockwise flow observed around low- pressure zones in the Northern Hemisphere and the clockwise flow around such zones in the Southern Hemisphere. It is the result of a centripetal force on a mass moving with a velocity radially outward in a rotating plane.
