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.

Nathan Carter meet and greet row erupts again as team hits back
The row over Nathan Carter's controversial Belfast meet and greet has reignited, as the country star's team hit back at claims he was ever officially booked for the event. The Wagon Wheel singer had headlined Feile an Phobail's sold-out Country Festival in Falls Park on Saturday night - joined by The Whistlin' Donkeys, Ultimate Eagles and Claudia Buckley - but confusion unfolded at The Balmoral Hotel, where a free "Nathan Carter Meet and Greet" had been promoted as part of its new Cargo Cult Smokehouse launch. Hundreds of fans turned up expecting to meet the singer, only for Nathan to post on Instagram the next day saying he had never been "officially booked" and apologising to disappointed guests. The 35-year-old said: "Regarding the meet and greet which was advertised for the Balmoral Hotel yesterday with myself, it's something that I was never booked for and apologies to people who did turn up. "When I got to Belfast I headed straight over and I met a few people at the hotel, but obviously missed an awful lot of people that had been there, so apologies about that. But unfortunately, it's something, as I say, that I was never officially booked for and it was advertised, so hope you all had a good time anyway at the Feile." But the hotel quickly hit back with a no-holds-barred Facebook post, claiming the event was booked and confirmed via Nathan's official promoter, Joe Gallagher Entertainment. Nathan Carter addressed the situation on Instagram (Image: Instagram/iamnathancarter) "Let's clear a few things up, shall we?" the hotel began. "As a proud sponsor of this year's Feile, we at The Balmoral Hotel were genuinely excited to host a FREE 'Nathan Carter: MEAT and Greet' event for the launch of our new Cargo Cult Smokehouse. This was booked and confirmed for us on Saturday 25th July via Joe Gallagher Entertainment, named as the official promoter for Nathan Carter's show. We were told that Nathan would be arriving on Saturday 2nd August any time between 4pm and 6pm." The Balmoral Hotel said they had only 250 free tickets - which "went within hours" - and claimed they reconfirmed the booking, even after being asked to "take the post down by Nathan's team", who were reportedly "getting requests from other businesses for meet and greets". They detailed extensive preparations, including shutting the car park, bringing in extra staff, providing free food, live music, a DJ, photographer, videographer and even a shuttle bus. The Balmoral alleged: "At 5pm, we got word from the promoters that Nathan would be arriving at 8pm, which overlapped with the start time of the Feile concert. We informed guests about this and let them decide what to do. Some stayed, some understandably couldn't and headed to the concert. We kept the energy up, and Nathan eventually arrived just before 10pm, posed for photos, and then headed to the show." The hotel then hit back at Nathan's social media claim: "Now here's the twist: Today, Nathan Carter posted a story on social media saying we never booked him. We're just going to say this: Maybe, just maybe, his teams should start talking to each other, because from where we're standing, this was very much booked and we planned every last detail around it. We're not in the business of drama, but we are in the business of hospitality and we're proud of the effort our team put in to make something special (and free) for our community." The Balmoral Hotel in Dunmurry on the outskirts of Belfast city (Image: Google Maps) The hotel closed their statement with a jab: "To our guests: thank you. To our team: legends. To Nathan: next time, we're booking Daniel O'Donnell. With love, The Balmoral Hotel." As the row went viral online, Nathan's team has now responded with a fresh statement. A spokesperson for Nathan Carter said that he was "never booked for this". They told Belfast Live: "On Saturday night Nathan and his band performed at Feile Country Fest, which was an amazing gig. The promoter, who booked Nathan for the show, asked if Nathan would go to the venue and meet the venue proprietor and some of his personal guests to which we agreed, but at no stage was there a time or agreement to do an official meet and greet. "Once Nathan arrived in Belfast, he went straight to the venue and met some of the people that were there. We understand people's annoyance and are very sorry that this happened, but as I said, this was never booked as an official meet and greet." Promoter Joe Gallagher Entertainment also weighed in and took to the Balmoral Hotel's defence. A spokesperson said: "Joe Gallagher Entertainment can confirm that the Nathan Carter pre-concert meet and greet advertised by the Balmoral Hotel in Belfast was pre-arranged and agreed with Nathan's Tour Manager. "After being delayed on his arrival in Belfast, Nathan did ensure he made an appearance at the Balmoral Hotel event. The delay was in no part due to the Balmoral Hotel."

Love Island star goes public with new boyfriend three years after disastrous stay in the villa
Following her stint in the villa, she embarked on a worrying cosmetic surgery journey new love Love Island star goes public with new boyfriend three years after disastrous stay in the villa A LOVE Islander has gone public with her brand new boyfriend - three years on from a disastrous stint in the villa. Blonde stunner Mollie Salmon has been showing off her hunky new man on social media after failing to find love in the eighth series of the show. 4 Forgotten Love Islander Mollie Salmon has found love after the villa Credit: ITV 4 She has debuted her handsome new boyfriend online Credit: Instagram Mollie has continued to keep her Instagram followers updated with the goings-on in her life and has now revealed her new man for the first time. She posted a loved-up selfie of the pair from a recent outing with each other. It is understood to be the first time that she has ever shared a snapshot of her handsome mystery man online. Whilst Mollie did not tag him in the post, 25-year-old Olly Wilson replied to the post with a love heart before Mollie replied the same - seemingly acknowledging their connection. One of her fans commented underneath the photo: "YOU GUYSSSS." As another shared under the former reality TV star's post: "Unbelievable moll." Mollie lasted less than five days during her time as a Casa Amor girl on the show. She failed to find any connections in the villa and was largely mocked online for seemingly going missing and failing to be seen in any scenes on the programme. Following her time in the villa, she embarked on a controversial cosmetic surgery journey. Mollie underwent the dangerous fox-eye procedure in a bid to alter her looks. Awkward moment Love Island's Harrison calls girlfriend Lauren by his EX'S name live on TikTok - hours after coming face to face with her She revealed that the cosmetic procedure involved lifting the eyebrows to target "droopy" eyelids. Her cheeks look noticeably more taut while her eyes appear raised at the ends, changing their shape entirely. On her Instagram account, she revealed she went under the knife at Mono Cosmetic Surgery in Turkey. Despite clearly being excited for her new look, trolls were quick to claim Mollie's surgery choice wouldn't end well. 4 Mollie appeared on the show for just a few days Credit: Eroteme One wrote: "Bug eye surgery." Another remarked: "I'd never in a million years get an eye surgery." But Mollie wasn't going to let the haters win as she posted another clip revealing the final results of her surgery. She penned: "Reading through all my comments saying I've ruined my face with fox eye surgery." Wearing black sunglasses she mimed over the sound: "I had a little cry earlier, and I had a big cry last night, but I'm not crying now and I think for that, I'm doing so well."
