Supermac’s honoured for job creation

Supermac’s has won the Franchise of the Year Award for Outstanding Contribution to Employment in Ireland at the Irish Franchise Awards 2017.

The awards – presented in Dublin last week – recognise excellence in franchising and reward the outstanding achievements of businesses and individuals in the franchise industry.

Supermac’s contribution to communities throughout the country was a key factor in the group of family restaurants winning the award, with over 2,500 people employed in over 100 family restaurants throughout the country with significant expansion plans in the near future.

Supermac’s Managing Director, Pat McDonagh, said that he was delighted to win the award on behalf of the franchisees that do an excellent job.

“Supermac’s plays a significant role in the communities our stores are based. Along with the employment we provide we become key members of the fabric of the society, particularly in rural Ireland,” he said.

“Both Una and I are delighted that the employment we provide and the impact it has on the communities of which we are part has been recognised by this award. Our plan is to continue to create employment and to become part of the balanced effort to regenerate the economy of the entire country,” he concluded.
