Joyce’s to take over Nestor’s Galway supermarkets
Joyce’s Supermarket Group is set to buy all four Nestor supermarkets in Galway.
Nestor’s supermarkets, which are currently in receivership, comprise Super Valu stores at Fr. Griffin Road, Oranmore and Ballybane and Centra in Doughiska.
Joyces was established in 1951 and has stores in Headford, Athenry, Tuam, Indreabhán and Knocknacarra.
Once the proposed transaction is complete, the four Galway Nestor stores will be re-branded under the Joyce’s name.
Joyce’s said it will work with employees at the Nestor stores and additional career and promotion opportunities will be available to new and existing staff.
The deal will have to be approved by the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission.
