Athenry 9 Dec 2005 Joyces Supermarket Opening

The opening of Joyce's 365 Supermarket, Athenry, 9th December 2005. Video Richard Murphy. As reported in the Connacht Tribune, 4th November 2022 on page 55: “Tesco's new store finally opens in Athenry today. It remains to be seen if Tesco can attract these shoppers back to what was originally Joyce's 365 in Athenry Shopping Centre. Needless to say, the important factor will be competitive prices and special offers.” Tesco opened almost 17 years to the day since Joyces official opening in December 2005.
