MANGO, one of the world\u2019s leading fashion groups, has opened its newest store<\/a> in Limerick today, creating 15 new jobs.<\/p>\n

Situated on\u00a0O\u2019Connell Street,\u00a0the new store offers Mango\u2019s latest womenswear and menswear collections, including clothing, footwear and accessories, all designed at Mango\u2019s Barcelona atelier by a team of 500 experts. Combining timeless and versatile staples with more stylish contemporary pieces influenced by the brand\u2019s Mediterranean heritage, Mango\u2019s clothing collection offers quality fashion at reasonable prices.<\/p>\n

The new 7535 sq ft store also reflects Mango\u2019s New Med concept – an interior design inspired by the brand\u2019s Mediterranean heritage and culture, with natural textures, warm tones and sustainable materials that create a bright and welcoming shopping space.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new location on Limerick\u2019s main street is Mango\u2019s first standalone store in the city, adding to existing stores in Cork, Swords and Newbridge. The brand also has a presence in Dundrum and Blanchardstown, as well as two flagship stores in Dublin city centre, located on Grafton Street and Henry Street.<\/p>\n

This latest opening forms part of Mango\u2019s\u00a02024\u20132026 4Es Strategic Plan,\u00a0which aims to drive sales and store expansion, including an ambitious roadmap to expand Mango\u2019s store presence across Ireland. Since the creation of this expansion plan, Mango is on track to open 500 new stores globally by the end of 2026.<\/p>\n

The expansion plan builds on Mango\u2019s strong performance. In July Mango reported global turnover of \u20ac1.73 billion in the first half of 2025, up 12% year on year (14% at constant exchange rates). This growth was driven by the popularity of its collections, including the recent collaboration with up-and-coming London designer Supriya Lele, alongside continued new store openings.<\/p>\n

Fiona Cullen, International Regional Director for the UK & Ireland, commented:\u00a0\u201cOur new store in Limerick is a confident step forward for Mango, building on the strong progress we have made over the last year to broaden the appeal of Mango to even more customers across Ireland. Limerick is the perfect new home to introduce our womenswear and menswear collections to Irish customers, in a store format that truly represents the Mediterranean soul of our brand.\u201d<\/p>\n

Limerick City Centre saw 21 new businesses\/retailers open their doors in 2025. With other highlights such as the major multi million euro investments in Keane\u2019s Jewellers and Penneys flagship city centre store.<\/p>\n

Mayor of Limerick John Moran\u00a0commented:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis building holds a special place in Limerick\u2019s story, and it\u2019s wonderful to see it playing an active role in the life of the city once again. I met the developers early in my term, and they assured me they would honour the heritage of the building with care and respect while bringing new energy to this landmark. They have delivered on that promise, and I want to offer my sincere congratulations and thanks to them and to their local Limerick architects, Healy Partners Architects.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also want to warmly welcome Mango to their new location. Their presence brings great news on the jobs front, and I wish the entire team the very best as they begin their new operation in the heart of Limerick city centre.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pr\u00edomh Chomhairleoir, Cllr Catherine Slattery\u00a0said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a welcome investment from such a reputable fashion retailer. This shows a big vote of confidence in the city centre as a destination for businesses. Limerick City and County Council is proud to support businesses that choose to grow here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Director General, Limerick Council, Dr Pat Daly\u00a0added:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe opening of Mango on O\u2019Connell Street is a strong endorsement of Limerick\u2019s continued growth. It has been fantastic to watch the revitalisation of this prominent building and to see the positive impact it is already having by drawing additional footfall into the heart of Limerick city. Limerick City and County Council is committed to creating and maintaining a vibrant city centre, and today\u2019s opening reflects the confidence that leading brands have in Limerick\u2019s future.”<\/p>\n
