The new JYSK store in Portlaoise will finally open its door to the public later this week.
The Danish retailer had been due to open on August 8th but was forced to postpone the opening after a final inspection by fire officers discovered that additional work was required to the store to satisfy all health and safety regulations and it’s not possible to complete these works before Thursday.
The opening will now take place on Friday, 30th August. The Danish chain has also appointed Maria Sirotkina, originally from Russia but now residing in Roscrea, Co. Tipperary, to the role of store manager for the global homewares brand.
Maria has a first class honours BA in Retail Management and speaks three languages. She previously spent many years working in retail at Dunnes Stores and LIDL Ireland.
JYSK specialises in sleeping products – from mattresses, duvets and pillows to bed-frames and bases.
Speaking about the upcoming opening, Maria says: “The most exciting part for me is to bring a new shopping experience to Irish customers, and I am thrilled to be managing the opening of one of the first JYSK stores in Ireland. It’s great to be part of a new company in Ireland that already has such a large network of stores throughout Europe. JYSK has a great reputation for selling good value, stylish and modern household items and I’m delighted to now be a part of that.”
Head of Retail in Ireland, Roni Tuominen comments: “Maria is a natural salesperson but can also get the details right and get the job done well. Her experience speaks for itself and we are looking forward to achieving another successful store opening with Maria in Portlaoise.”
JYSK offers an extensive range of products for the home, from the bedroom to the garden, and at
great prices. JYSK’s Scandinavian design ethic and stylish approach to interiors has made the brand known and loved across the world.
