The new store was officially opened on Thursday at Dundrum Town Centre by Neale Richmond the Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment.

The opening of this new Penney’s has brought an additional 130 jobs, bringing the store’s employment to a total of 360 active employees.
