Dealz to open six more stores in Ireland
UK-listed discount retailer Poundland is planning to open six new Dealz stores in Ireland over the next year. The new openings will bring to 41 the number of shops in the Republic for Dealz, which opened here three years ago.
To date, the UK company has invested approximately €53 million in its Irish network with about €4.5 million being spent this year on its expansion. It attracts about 200,000 customers a week to its Irish stores. The group’s revenues from the Republic amounted to £55 million for the year to the end of March 2014.
