LIDL are owned by a huge German wholesaler who are already dealing in large quantities, their middle aisle products are bought in huge volumes because they have such a laegr foot print of stores, unlike your average hardware shops where you'd otherwise be buying your drill, hedgehog hotel and speciality Greek produce.
