Iceland Foods returns to Limerick with a twist – two years after sudden store closure
That closure left staff without jobs and customers without access to the popular range of frozen goods.
The new outlet will offer over 200 products, including Iceland's own-brand items and exclusive lines from popular UK names like Greggs, Slimming World, TGI Friday's, and Harry Ramsden's.
The Limerick location is part of Iceland's growing partnership with Dunnes Stores, following successful store-within-a-store launches in Dublin and Terryland.
Justin Addison, International and Partnerships Director at Iceland Foods, said: 'We're delighted to bring Iceland back to Limerick through our continued partnership with Dunnes.
'This new format allows us to offer great value and exclusive products to more Irish customers, and we look forward to a successful future in the city.'
The move is expected to be well received by Limerick shoppers who had missed the brand since its sudden exit in 2023.

Tearful tribute paid to young Irish fashion designer found dead on yacht in USA
The business partner of a young Irish fashion designer found dead on a yacht in the US has posted a heartwarming tribute to her on social media following her death. The founder of fashion label East x East, Martha Nolan-O'Slatarra, was discovered unconscious at midnight onboard a boat docked at the Montauk Yacht Club. People rushed out and made attempts to save her life, but East Hampton Town Police later pronounced her dead at the scene. The 33-year-old, who is originally from Co Carlow but was living in Manhattan, graduated from University College Dublin (UCD) and later completed a masters degree in digital marketing in Smurfit Business School. Dylan Grace, Martha's business partner at design company East x East, wrote a touching tribute to his dear friend on Instagram alongside a number of photos of them, sharing how he was 'truly blessed and grateful' to have had her in his life. He wrote: 'We dreamed big together, laughed harder than anyone else could understand, and built so much from nothing. I'm truly blessed and grateful to have had you in my life. Love you so much Mar. Fly high girl." Martha moved to New York at the age of 26, where she began working as a sales rep for a fintech start-up working with top-tier hedge funds before launching her East x East brand, a clothing and apparel line that specialises in eyewear, swimwear and resortwear. The details that led to her death remain unknown but are being investigated by the Suffolk County Medical Examiner's Office. While it's unclear exactly how the 33-year-old died, a boater at the scene described the ship in which she was found, named Ripple, as in fact a 'party boat'.

Revenue write to almost 70k Irish pensioners over incorrect tax payments amid fears envelope ‘will cause lot of concern'
Revenue is clamping down on pensioners who have owed tax since 2022 TAX TIME Revenue write to almost 70k Irish pensioners over incorrect tax payments amid fears envelope 'will cause lot of concern' REVENUE commissioners have written to almost 70,000 pensioners over concerns relating to incorrect tax payments. These retirees make up a large portion of the 260,000 individuals who Revenue claims may have been incorrectly taxed for the year 2022. 3 The Revenue commission says this campaign is not aimed explicitly at pensioners Credit: Getty Images - Getty 3 According to Revenue, over 260,000 taxpayers may have been incorrectly taxed for the year 2022 Credit: Getty Images - Getty Despite this action, the Revenue Commission says it has not launched a campaign aimed explicitly at pensioners. The letters outline steps taxpayers should take to file a correct end-of-year statement and income tax return. According to RTE, the correspondence says that the vast majority of people, including pensioners, pay the right amount of tax automatically. However, other income sources, such as "a Department of Social Protection payment or private income, Revenue may need to adjust tax credits to reflect that". Notably, social welfare payments are not taxed before they are paid out; as a result, many recipients owe tax on these payments without knowing it. For example, if a person receives a social welfare payment, such as the State pension, but has another source of income, such as a part-time job or private pension, they may owe tax on that payment. Revenue says pensioners whose sole income comes from the state pension will not be effected. Despite the presence of these letters, Revenue says that "the letters are not a demand, but part of our regular efforts to help people check if they have paid the right amount of tax, or if they are due a refund". And that where there is underpayment taxpayers will not be required to make an immediate payment. Instead, any owed funds "will be collected through a reduction of tax credits in future years". "MORE HUMANE APPROACH" CEO of Irish Rural Link Seamus Boland said these Revenue letters will cause much concern. Referencing the time revenue sent letters sent to around 115,000 pensioners in 2012, he said: "I think at that stage there was an apology made for the way people were being treated. "Hopefully this letter is not as brutal as that one was, I'm hoping it's a little softer in terms of people who have overpaid and there will be a category of people who have underpaid as well." He added: "there's lots of pensioners in this category who are going to be affected one way or the other." But that he hopes the commission might adopt a "more humane approach" this time. Revenue has yet to disclose the sums of money involved.

Saoirse Hanley: The new Penneys app may change the way you shop – but there is a snag
The app is already top of the Irish shopping charts Penneys (or Primark, as it's known elsewhere) is a long-standing part of Irish culture: after all, the very first store opened on Dublin's Mary Street. It's in our DNA. It's distinct from other shops by virtue of price, certainly, but also because it has never moved its business online. Those who want to say 'thanks, I got it in Penneys' to someone who compliments their outfit get to do so with the smugness of someone who battled the masses to procure said fashion in-store.
