I don't even see people going into those places tbh. I remember on Paddys night regarding McHughs, there was very little people there . like it looked pretty dead even if it has opened up again!

I honestly didn't hear anyone going into that Curiousty shop, it looked very scattered and a lot like the charity shop next to it. Wonder why they closed it down?

It'll be opening again very shortly. Someone else has a lease on it and is currently doing some minor renovations.

Anyone know what's going on with the Fairgreen in Skreen? Closed temporarily last weekend due to "Unforeseen Circumstances" but no updates since.

Dont worry, ppl will still call it Toffs just like SIXTH is sometimes called Envy or Pure sometimes......

Was it all the one company? The dealership/petrol station on Pearse Rd, petrol ststion on Mail Coach Road, garage in Finisklin, and fuel depot?

Wow. Gone with a bang. I was in the Carraroe shop there yesterday.

I always found them a dodgy bunch, the fact all of their shops were held up over the last few years felt a bit suspect to me.
It's a reall shame for the people who were working for them, I'd say they had no idea.

rizzodun · 13-06-2016 5:45pm

Receivers brought in I believe, hopefully the shops will re-open under new management.

Bebo stunnah · 13-06-2016 7:03pm

15 Shops in total. Some places in areas now left miles away from a petrol station. 208 people out of work. No doubt they weren't told about it by the owners. Heard rumours they've known about it for a few days.

3 lorries outside the one at carraroe today loading up all the cars. very sudden

sligojoek · 13-06-2016 8:47pm

That's rough on the staff. I used to go to the Mailcoach Road shop for grub and coffee. Staff were always dead sound.

T-Bird · 13-06-2016 9:08pm

Not sure if McCormack ownes the filling station and supermac in Castlebaldwin but that closed today as well.

If I was being cynical, I would probably suggest that it is the banks calling the shots. Most of them are profitable again and have grown back their cahonas and calling in the debts.
