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.

I'm a size 14 and 5ft 10 – I've found the perfect tummy-friendly summer dress that's as comfy as a tracksuit & costs £20
THEY are part and parcel of summer, but can be less than forgiving on curvier women. However, one fashion fan has said she's found the perfect summer dress for anyone who's self-conscious of their figure, and it's only £20. 6 A fashion fan has shared her top summer buys from Peacocks Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 Due to being made of thick jersey, it's super flattering on the tummy Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 The £20 dress also comes in red Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 Not only that, but the patterned midi dress is so comfortable that it's like wearing a tracksuit. Peacocks As an added bonus, the £25 dress is currently reduced to just £20 on the Peacocks website. "It's a great summer dress and also wearable because here you've got thicker straps," she said, referring to the fact you can easily wear a bra underneath without the straps showing. Read more Style stories "You've got a thicker jersey so it doesn't cling to your tummy." And there are also buttons at the front that don't undo - meaning they won't gape even if you're top heavy. The dress also comes in red and white, and is also incredibly comfy in the hot weather. "This dress, because of the fact that it's jersey and very comfortable, means you can just put this on whenever," she added. Most read in Fabulous "It feels like you're wearing a tracksuit version of a dress." She also explained she'd sized up because of her height, but said you might not need to do that if you're not on the taller side. I tried two fabulous new dresses from Dunnes Stores, they're perfect for special occasions and great value- "Either way, it's a fab dress!" she concluded. And it wasn't the only dress she fell in love with as part of the haul. There was also a white one that caught her eye, thanks to its strappy top and billowing skirt - which, once again, hides the tummy area. It also has pockets - a feature everyone appreciates! Next up was a patterned number with a "loose fit", that comes with a matching belt if you want to cinch it in at the waist. "I love this one!" she gushed. Hottest fashion trends of 2025 Fabulous' Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend shares the biggest trends from the high street. The East/West Bag Baguette bags have had a good run, after returning from the 1990s' shoulders of Sarah Jessica Parker to modern-day fashion icons, like Hailey Bieber. In 2025, the East/West bag is a similar but elongated shape and has long, thin straps that are easy to throw over your shoulder. They've been on runway models' arms at nearly ever designer show - think Burberry, Givenchy and Bottega Veneta - and are hitting the high street now, too. Powder pink Bright fuchsia pink had its day after the release of Barbie in 2023 and now the more polished and expensive-looking pale shade is taking over for 2025. Pantone may say that it's the year of Mocha Mousse, but the catwalks say otherwise! From Prada to Erdem, the subtle look was all over the spring/summer catwalks, worn head-to-toe or on its own. If the sugary shade is too girly for you, then look to sharp suiting for a androgynous take on the colour. The shell jacket The '80s classic is back, but with a sleek and minimal new twist for 2025. We all know we're likely to see rain for most of spring, so your practical coat of choice should be a cagoule jacket. Depop revealed one of its big trend predictions for this year is retro sportswear, with surges already seen in '80s windbreakers'. Seen everywhere from the stylish streets of Copenhagen to the Miu Miu catwalk, now mums who have an emergency raincoat crumpled underneath their pushchair are very much in fashion! The turn-up jeans While the shape of jeans remains the same for this year and barrel-legs will still be everywhere, the way we're styling them is different. This season, transform your wide-leg, baggy denims into turn-ups. For this look, size doesn't matter, so while deep turn-ups are a hit from jean trend-leaders Citizens of Humanity, a slight fold is still just as good - but only as it's just one single fold. Peep-toe shoe Get your pedicures booked in sharpish, as this season your toes are the main event. After a long hiatus, the peep-toe has been welcomed back into the fashion fold, with brands like Hermes, Miu Miu and Tory Burch showing plain and embellished footwear in this style. From mules to pumps and clogs (yes, clogs will be around too!), there are lots of different styles that are set to sweep the high street. Sheer blouses See-through looks have always lived on the catwalk, but have rarely filtered into everyday life - until now. Designers Ralph Lauren and Tom Ford loved sheer looks on their S/S '25 catwalks and M&S even had sellout success with its black sheer pencil skirt last season. Expect to see more sheer looks lining supermarket aisles and high street shops in the form of skirts, tops and frocks. "These new summer dresses at Peacocks are the perfect choice," the video was captioned. And people in the comments section insisted they'd been easily influenced by the video - and shot to the website to place their orders. "I saw your video and went and bought the black dress with fitted top," one wrote. "I love it!" "I got a lovely dress from here," another insisted. "I just got the 14 in black, I love it!" a third agreed. "I ordered the red," someone else said. As another wrote: "I love Peacocks!" 6 This dress is really flattering too, and comes with a belt if you want to cinch it in Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 While this white dress was another of her favourites Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 It even has pockets - a much loved feature among fashion fans Credit: TikTok/@user604251860
