Musgrave was trying to get hold of Superquinn for years, says Martin

MUSGRAVE chief executive Chris Martin said the company has been trying to get its hands on Superquinn for “many years”.

The group said that now it has received Competition Authority approval for the takeover of Superquinn, the challenge is to determine where the brand is going to go.

“It gives significant presence to Musgrave in Dublin,” he said.
