The so-called recovery continues as 24 jobs have been lost Drogheda today with the closure of the SuperValu shopping centre.
The Drogheda website “DroghedaLife.com” sent a reporter to the premises at lunchtime where they said both shoppers and some staff were unaware of the immediate closure.
Six full time staff were told late last night while eighteen part time staff were still hearing the bad news right before Christmas.
In a statement, the company said: “Regrettably we are announcing the closure of our store in Drogheda due to difficult trading conditions at the store over a sustained trading period.”
“This decision will potentially lead to redundancies for the six full-time and eighteen part-time staff members. The store will cease to operate today, 2nd December 2016.”
