Barack Obama Plaza off M7 motorway investment helps Supermacs to revenue of €93m

Fast food firm Supermac’s last year reaped the rewards of its €10m investment in the Barack Obama Plaza by increasing operating profits by 35% to €9.6m.

The plaza opened in May last year and figures just filed by Supermac’s (Holdings) Ltd show revenues across the group rose 17% going from €79.9m to a record €93.3m.

The opening of the plaza off the M7 motorway between Limerick and Dublin involved the creation of 60 jobs and the fast-food firm had the boost in revenues as the business expanded, booking €21.49m in capital expenditure and financial investment during the year compared to €3.56m in 2013.
