Quinn departs chain after sale

SUPERQUINN deputy chairman Eamonn Quinn has left the supermarket chain after its €450 million takeover by Select Retail Holdings was formally completed yesterday.

The company said Mr Quinn, son of founder Senator Fergal Quinn, was leaving to manage his family’s interests. Senator Quinn remains with the company in a non-executive role and continues to have a share in the business, but the company has declined to give details of its size.

Senator Quinn’s other son Stephen has also stayed with the company.
