REVEALED: Major Irish retailer set to open store in local Tipperary town
Carraig Donn is opening a branch in Clonmel this autumn
Carraig Donn has announced the opening of a brand-new store in the heart of Clonmel this coming September.
Located in the prime town centre unit formerly occupied by New Look, the 5,000 square-foot store will feature Carraig Donn’s exclusive collection of ladies fashion, jewellery, accessories, gifts and homewares.
With a loyal customer base already established in Thurles and across neighbouring counties including Limerick, Waterford, and Cork, this new Clonmel store marks a major expansion for the brand in the region.
Pat Hughes, CEO of Carraig Donn, expressed his enthusiasm about the expansion: "We are thrilled to be opening in Clonmel – a town which has so much to offer. We are grateful to local councillor Siobhán Ambrose for championing the town and encouraging us to explore this fantastic opportunity. Her insights and advocacy were instrumental in our decision."
The property lease was completed in partnership with Clonmel businessman Benny McCarthy, who expressed support for the new addition to the town.
Carraig Donn’s arrival is seen as a strong enhancement to Clonmel’s retail offering, bringing a well-established and reputable Irish brand to a key town centre location.
Refit works are scheduled to begin shortly, with drawings already gone to tender.

The new destination store is expected to open its doors in late September, just in time for the autumn shopping season.
As part of this expansion, the new store will create up to 20 new jobs in Clonmel, a welcome boost to the local economy.
Recruitment is now open across a range of roles, with applications invited via the Carraig Donn careers page at www.carraigdonn.com.
Carraig Donn looks forward to becoming an integral part of the Clonmel community and contributing to the town’s ongoing growth and development.
