THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
"Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
"Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas."
The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
"Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England."
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.

The best skin tints for summer 2025
It's that time of year when temperatures rise, the sun hopefully makes a more regular appearance (I hope I'm not jinxing our famously chaotic Irish summers here) and the urge to wear lighter, glowier make-up comes to the fore. Out go the full-coverage foundations and in their place we reach more often for skin tints and tinted moisturisers. I use skin tints year round, not just in summer. Maybe it's an age thing but these days I find myself gravitating towards lighter coverage that still delivers a fresh, dewy finish. I want skin that looks like skin – just a bit more radiant. Here are four standout options for summer, all boasting skincare-loaded formulas, just enough coverage (and in some cases a little more) and, most importantly, a finish that looks like your skin only better. And who doesn't want that? Sculpted by Aimee HydraTint Moisturising Tinted Serum SPF20 Sculpted by Aimee HydraTint (€25 at Boots and First up is Sculpted by Aimee HydraTint. Although it's only been on the market for a few years, it's already nearing cult status. This truly is one of the best skincare-meets-make-up hybrids available, which is why it's a product I recommend again and again. READ MORE Affordable at just €25 and with 20 shades to choose from, HydraTint is a serum-like base that provides just enough coverage to reduce redness and even out skin tone, while its soothing, moisture-boosting formula (ceramides, centella asiatica, hyaluronic acid, and more) keeps your skin hydrated and comfortable, both immediately and throughout the day. Poco Beauty Skintuition Complexion Perfecting Foundation SPF50 Poco Beauty Skintuition Foundation (€32 from If you're looking for slightly more coverage but still want a feather-light feel and skincare benefits, look no further than Poco Beauty's Skintuition Complexion Perfecting Foundation (€32 from Poco Beauty) – the second home-grown brand on this list. With a slightly thicker texture, it blends like a cream but feels like a serum on the skin. The coverage is medium and very buildable, and it's available in eight stretchable shades (with more on the way, according to founder Pippa O'Connor). The ingredients list is impressive too: niacinamide, adenosine, and hyaluronic acid – all working together to brighten, hydrate, and improve skin texture over time. Summer Fridays Sheer Skin Tint Summer Fridays Sheer Skin Tint (€46 from Space NK) Aside from its lightweight, fluid formula that delivers a glossy, skin-like finish, Summer Fridays Sheer Skin Tint (€46 from Space NK) is a particularly excellent choice for those prone to redness or sensitivity. Along with moisture-boosting ingredients like glycerine, squalane and hyaluronic acid, it also contains tiger grass – a powerful ingredient known for calming, soothing, and reducing the appearance of inflammation. Available in 12 shades, this tint, like Sculpted by Aimee HydraTint, is a whack-on-and-go serum-like formula – excellent for applying in a hurry with a brush or fingertips. Supergoop! Protec(tint) Daily SPF Tint SPF50 Supergoop! Protect(tint) Daily SPF Tint (€45 from Cult Beauty) One of the newer products on this list, Supergoop! is known for its excellent range of sunscreens designed to suit all skin types and concerns. The most recent addition to their line-up is the excellent Protect(tint) Daily SPF Tint (€45 from Cult Beauty). This is for you if you prefer more of a wash of colour (and still pretty decent coverage) combined with high-factor broad-spectrum SPF protection. Available in 14 shades, it's a clever hybrid formulation containing both chemical and mineral UV filters, along with hyaluronic-acid-infused clay that absorbs oil while keeping skin hydrated, and ectoin – a powerful amino acid that protects the skin barrier and helps reduce inflammation. This week I'm loving … Lush Seanik Shampoo Bar Lush Cosmetics Seanik Shampoo Bar (€12 from Lush) In July this year, Lush Cosmetics celebrates its 30th birthday – and its 25th year since opening a store in Ireland. To celebrate, I reintroduced myself to one of my all-time favourite Lush products: Seanik Shampoo Bar (€12 from Lush). Made with sea salt and Irish moss seaweed, it delivers bouncy, shiny hair that feels squeaky clean. The bar lasts for what feels like several hundred washes.
