Sweet-maker Ferrero has lodged a strong objection to plans for a major new hotel and residential development across the road from its Cork factory.
The Italian confectionery giant which produces Tic Tac sweets on the Kinsale Road wants planners in Cork City Council to refuse permission for a seven-storey hotel along with 134 apartments on a site located at Ballycurreen on the southern side of the N27 between Cork Airport and the N40 South Ring Road.
