A new Tesco store is coming to South Kilkenny

The new shop in Ferrybank will create 22 new jobs

Tesco is opening a new store in South Kilkenny in the coming months.

The new shop in Ferrybank will create 22 new jobs.

It’s part of a €80 million investment across the country which will see the opening of eight new express stores, along with the upgrade of 50 other stores.

There are still no further details on the company’s plans for a store at the Old Mart site in Kilkenny City.

In a statement to KCLR News, Tesco Ireland say they are engaged with Kilkenny County Council on the master planning of the old Mart site, which KCLR revealed earlier this year that the UK retail chain had bought.
