Tesco Ireland invests €50m into expansion plans

The grocer expects to have 165 stores open this year

Tesco’s investment follows announcements from Centra and SuperValu owner Musgrave earlier this year.

Tesco Ireland is set to spend €50m on store upgrades and new openings this year.

It made the investment announcement as it opened its 154th store. It also recently acquired nine stores from the Joyce family which operated eponymous independent stores in Galway.
