German-owned discount chain Lidl Magyarország had net profit of HUF 34.6 billion in the business year ended February 28, 2025, up from HUF 26.4 billion a year earlier.
Net sales revenue rose to HUF 1,485.8 billion from HUF 1,325.9 billion, according to the financial report published on Friday.
Lidl paid more than HUF 64 billion in the special retail tax and corporate tax, almost double its net profit.
Despite the high sectoral taxes, Lidl aims to reinvest the profit generated in Hungary in the country. In the 2025 business year, it spent a record high of HUF 74.7 billion on domestic investments.
Lidl Magyarország now employs close to 10,500 workers and spent over HUF 100 billion on employee-related payments and personnel expenses.
With the mediation and support of Lidl Magyarország, HUF 160 billion worth of Hungarian goods were sold directly to Lidl retain chains abroad, 15% more than a year earlier.
Lidl operates 220 stores in Hungary.
