Expanding Supermac’s takes away profits of €14m

Supermac’s boss Pat McDonagh saw pre-tax profits double to €14m at his fast food and hotels group.

The group broke through the €100m barrier in revenues for the first time last year, as income soared by 24.5% to €116m.

In an interview yesterday, Mr McDonagh said: “We are delighted with the results across the board for the business last year and the challenge now will be to keep it going.”
