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.

Limerick rugby player set for Love Island villa
Conor Phillips, a professional rugby player from Limerick, has been announced as a contestant on the upcoming season of Love Island. The 25-year-old rugby union player is among the opening line-up heading to the Majorcan villa for the next run of the popular dating series. He joins fellow Irish contestant, Dublin actor and panto star Megan Forte Clarke, who was previously announced to be taking part. Speaking about his type, he said: "Someone who is really sure of themselves, ambitious, a bit of a go-getter and good craic. I like dark eyes and I don't mind a dominant woman." With regards his biggest "ick" in a potential partner, Phillips shared: "Being too needy, or needing to do everything together. I like someone to be independent and do their own thing and then we come together and do our thing." The winger said of his flaws: "I don't like to answer to anyone else. I like to do my own thing. It's something I'm working on for a relationship. Hopefully I've improved!" The rugby player promises to bring some mischief to the villa, describing himself as "the class clown type". "Being in big teams and groups all the time, I'm always mixing things up, stirring the pot," he said. The Limerick native said presenter Maya Jama would be impressed with his flirting skills. "I ask girls if they want to go halves on a baby. It doesn't work, but it gets them laughing. It's an ice-breaker, not a serious question of course!" he said. Jokes aside, the rugby star said he is looking for a partner. "I'm doing nicely as a single person, but I need a relationship, I need to settle down and invest in some stocks," he said. His secret skill is singing. "My go to is Mario's Let Me Love You," he said. "I've sang in front of a lot of people before. If it's your first rugby match you have to get on the bus and sing - they loved it!"

Irish sports hunk enters Love Island villa in bombshell late twist
An Irish sports star has officially joined the Love Island 2025 cast - after a shock last-minute shake-up saw one original Islander pulled from the line-up just days before launch. Kyle Ashman was set to enter the villa in Mallorca alongside 11 other sexy singletons, but was suddenly axed. An ITV spokesperson confirmed: "For personal reasons, Kyle will not be entering the Love Island Villa as planned". Now, in a surprise twist, 25-year-old professional rugby player Conor Philips from Limerick has swooped in to take his place - and he's already making headlines. The confident winger says he's after "someone who is really sure of themselves, ambitious, a bit of a go-getter and good craic" - and revealed he doesn't mind "a dominant woman". But don't expect him to be clingy. "I don't like to answer to anyone else. I like to do my own thing", he admitted, adding that being "too needy" is his biggest ick. He described himself as the "class clown type vibe", and joked his love life would be called 'Still Trying' - "it's got to be a rugby pun, hasn't it?" And while he says he'd be "keeping my head above water" in the dating world, he's ready to settle down and "invest in some stocks". As for his flirting style? "I ask girls if they want to go halves on a baby… it doesn't work, but it gets them laughing." Conor becomes the second Irish contestant confirmed for this year's Love Island series, which kicks off Monday, June 9 on Virgin Media Two and Virgin Media Play. He'll be joined by Megan Forte, a 24-year-old musical theatre performer and panto star originally from Dublin. Now living in Brighton, Megan describes herself as bubbly and is looking for a man with a great sense of humour - and says she's more than happy with a "dad bod". The full 2025 cast includes Almia Gagigo, Helena Ford, Megan, Megan Moore, Shakira Khan and Sophie Lee, who will be coupling up with Conor, Ben Holbrough, Bly Chegini, Dejon Noel-Williams, Harry Cooksley and Tommy Bradley.
