Dealz to create 75 jobs with three new Irish stores

Discount retailer to bring its Irish portfolio to 100 stores with shops in Dublin, Cork and Donegal

Discount retailer Dealz is to create 75 jobs with the opening of three new Irish stores, bringing its portfolio here to 100.

Located in Dublin, Cork and Donegal, the outlets will open on July 16th, and will involve an investment of €1.1m into the economy.

The Dublin store will be located in Rathfarnham Shopping Centre, where it will take over the lease from previous tenant Penneys. The Cork store will be located in Clonakilty, while the Donegal store will be in Buncrana.

Dealz retail country manager Olivia McLoughlin said: “We’re thrilled to open three new Irish stores on the same day – it’s a signal of our ambition to grow. Additional job-creation and investment in new stores is part of our renewed commitment to Ireland and the communities we serve.”
