Dunnes pay €21m debt ahead of wind up petition

Dunnes Stores paid a €21m debt last night ahead of a petition to wind up the retail chain.

A petition to wind up Dunnes Stores has been withdrawn, after the retailer paid a €21m debt to the developer of a Kilkenny Shopping Centre.

Holtglen Ltd took legal action to try to enforce a judgment order against the chain over money owed for building work on the Ferrybank Shopping Centre.
