MrPRICE Acquires Star Buys

Posted on: 04 Aug 2020

In an otherwise uncertain retail market, Irish retailer MrPRICE - Ireland’s largest discount variety chain - has acquired the trading business of Star Buys in Clare Hall on the Malahide Road in Dublin 17. 

 

Star Buys was formerly owned by Hickeys 'Home Focus' Group and was a franchise of B&M Bargains PLC in the UK. Home Focus made the decision to dispose of 'Starbuys' to focus on their main business. 

 

MrPRICE are happy to acquire the store in Clare Hall, adding to their Northside portfolio which has grown in the last year with the addition of Blanchardstown Retail Park, Gullivers Retail Park near Ikea, Butterly Retail Park in Artane, and a refurbished Coolock store. 

 

This brings the store count to 50 for MrPRICE with lots more stores planned for later in 2020 & 2021 across a wide range of counties in the Republic. This is a big year for MrPRICE with the announcement of its 50th store and it being 10 years in business this year!

 

MrPRICE is a 100% Irish owned business and employs over 1,000 people across its network of stores and warehouses.
