Screwfix has opened at Woodbine Business Park in New Ross.
The Screwfix chain has opened a branch in New Ross, creating eleven jobs.
With more than 900 stores in the UK and Ireland, Screwfix is part of Kingfisher plc, the international home improvement company with more than 2,000 stores, supported by a team of over 80,000 colleagues.
Screwfix is celebrating the successful launch of its first store opening in New Ross, with a celebration period running from Thursday, May 30, until Sunday, June 2, offering all customers 10pc off.
The store officially opened its doors earlier in May and has created eleven new jobs for the area across retail management, service assistants and supervisor roles, to help local tradespeople get what they need, when they need it, to get the job done.
Screwfix’s New Ross Store Manager, Robbie Bernie, says: “We chose to open a new store in New Ross to better meet the needs of the local tradespeople. We are looking forward to welcoming and helping more tradespeople and serious DIYers over the coming months.”
Located in units 13 and 14 Woodbine Business Park, the new Screwfix store is part of the company’s growing network of over 35 stores across the Republic of Ireland. Busy customers can rely on the new store’s 10,000 plus products.
Open seven days early until late, the store also provides the convenient Click & Collect service that allows customers to order their goods online or over the phone and pick them up from a store in as little as one minute.
As part of Screwfix’s ongoing commitment to reduce carbon emissions, all stores in the Republic of Ireland are equipped with air-source heat pumps to provide heating powered by electricity instead of gas. Screwfix’s entire store network is already supplied with 95pc renewable electricity.
To be even closer to its local communities, all Screwfix stores in the Republic of Ireland are now provided with a life-saving defibrillator.
