Work on a new LIDL store for Letterkenny is to start within weeks.
An application as made under alcohol licensing laws at Letterkenny District Court for the store.
The store, which will be located at Port Road close to the Port Bridge, will provide 20 new jobs for the town.
There will also be space for 72 cars to park.
Gary Murray from LIDL told the court that the company operated a strict policy of sale of alcohol to minors.
The company operated a Challenge 25 system.
He explained this meant when an alcohol was scanned it alerted staff to check the person looked older than 25 and if they did not then to ask them for identification.
Judge Paul Kelly granted the application to barrister Constance Cassidy on behalf of LIDL.
