Retailer Dealz to create 300 jobs

Discount retailer Dealz is continuing to aggressively expand into the retail market, planning 10 stores that will employ an extra 300 people.

Dealz opened their first Irish store in Sept 2011 and are aiming to have 20 stores up and running by March next year, employing 600 people in Ireland.

The company, which views itself as the Marks and Spencer of the discount retailers, was little known in Ireland until last year when it opened its first Irish shops in Blanchardstown and Portlaoise.
