DIY and homes group set to hit 600 staff target

DIY AND homewares group 4HOME Superstores is set to hit its target of 600 employees by the year’s end following the opening of its 12th store.

The new €1.6 million store in Ballincollig, Co Cork, completes a €10m expansion plan that sees the group project a turnover of €65m for 2007 and employee numbers rise close to the 600 mark.

4HOME has doubled the number of outlets it had just a year ago with the opening of the new store.
