Battle of Limerick was lost to Poland last summer

THE battle to save Dell in Limerick was lost last summer.

Nicky Hartery, who had been leading the Limerick plant’s onward march since 2000, got a blank refusal when he tried to secure extra investment for the Raheen facility.

Mike Cannon, who was hired by Michael Dell to make his global organisation leaner and meaner, would hear none of it.
