150 job losses at 4-Home stores
Stores at Killarney and Ballincollig were shut last weekend following the earlier closure of outlets at Portlaoise, Carlow, Monaghan, Ashbourne and Macroom.
Fears have arisen about the future of two further stores at Fermoy and Mitchelstown as part of a major restructuring by Reox Holdings, the Dairygold Co-op spin off company.
