Star Wars fever boosts revenues at Disney store

The scramble for Star Wars film merchandise helped increase revenues and sharply reduce losses at the Disney store on Dublin’s Grafton Street last year.

Newly-filed accounts for TDS Disney Ireland Ltd show that the firm’s pre-tax losses — in the 12 months to the beginning of October — totalled €52,000.

That was almost €200,000 less than the €249,000 loss recorded in 2014.
