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.

The Horgan Brothers: The Irish Lumières

THE Horgan Brothers of Youghal, Co. Cork, Philip, James, and Thomas, were true pioneers of Irish cinema. From humble beginnings as shoemakers and photographers in the late 19th century, they became some of Ireland's earliest filmmakers, documenting a changing nation through stills and moving images. By 1903, James Horgan had adapted a projector into a film camera to capture local life, starting with the Royal visit to Lismore Castle. The Horgan brothers were pioneers of Irish cinema The brothers' footage soon became a fixture of local culture, and in 1917 they opened their own 600-seat cinema, The Horgan Picture Theatre, where they screened The Youghal Gazette—a homegrown newsreel that brought everything from town fairs to royal parades to the silver screen. The Horgans were also innovators. Around 1910, they created Ireland's earliest surviving animation, featuring the Youghal Town Hall clock doing a comic pirouette. Locals flocked to see themselves on film, an early example of community storytelling through cinema. Their photographic archive, now held by the IFI Irish Film Archive thanks to a donation by James Horgan's grandson Jim, captures Ireland on the cusp of independence. It's a vivid portrait of rural life, political awakening, and the quiet drama of ordinary people living through extraordinary times. The Horgan Brothers - The Irish Lumières brings their work to life again, revealing, in frame after frame, how two brothers from Youghal helped define how Ireland saw itself. The Horgan Brothers – The Irish Lumières, By Darina Clancy, Contributions by Jim Horgan & Patricia Horgan Whyte. Price: €19.99; £18.99. Imprint: Mercier Press.
