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.

Deal or No Deal chaos as horrified Irish star watches €118k vanish in minutes

A Deal or No Deal contestant has been dealt a huge blow, losing the £100K (€118k) jackpot just minutes into the ITV show. Saturday Night's Soccer Aid episode saw The Last Leg co-host Alex Brooker facing off the Banker, supported by a star-studded panel. In a bid to win up to £100,000 (€118,000) for UNICEF, Alex gunned for the cash prize assisted by celebrities, including Irish actor Emmett J Scanlan and former England player Jill Scott. However, the TV presenter was left devastated when he selected his brother Tom's box, hoping to strike blue. Initially optimistic about his choice, Alex told host Stephen Mulhern: "I think my brother Tom, number eight, has got 50p (59 cent) in there [the box]." Tom was equally confident, agreeing with his sibling that the box likely contained a blue value. But the duo suffered a major blow when Tom opened his box to find £100,000 (€118,000) inside, Mirror UK reports. The Soccer Aid team was visibly upset, and they were not alone. Viewers have taken to X, formerly Twitter, to echo their frustration at the huge loss. One penned: "Oh no! The £100K is gone," while a second voiced out: "£100K gone. I'm furious and raging." Other ITV fans were quick to question the star's process. "Why hasn't he got a system? Lucky numbers & bad numbers. Looks like he's just choosing randomly with no strategy," quipped one. Despite his early disappointment, Alex later accepted the Banker's offer of £13,780 (€16,350). His team was happy with the final deal, with viewers agreeing that Alex "made the right choice." Taking to X, one person praised the final deal, stating: "That's a lot of money for charity." Meanwhile, a second fan said: "Well done, Alex. A tremendous amount of vital funds in the bank." Started by Robbie Williams in 2006, Soccer Aid for UNICEF is a celebrity football fundraising event. Its profits go towards UNICEF's global mission to protect children's rights to play. This year's game kicks off next Sunday (15th June), with Brooker on the line-up alongside Sir Mo Farah, TV star Bear Grylls, singer Tom Grennan and social media sensation Morgan Burtwistle.
