SUPERMAC'S in Eyre Square in Galway is one of the most recognisable landmarks of the city.
The branch is by far one of the biggest stores the fast food chain but it won't remain the only Supermac's in Galways for much longer it seems.
In the area of Headford in Co. Galway, the newest outlet was officially opened by Phyllis Monaghan, according to the Connacht Tribune.
Ger Monaghan, franchisee of the fast food chain was delighted to confirm the news: "This is a new era for us. I have recently become the Supermac’s franchisee in Headford and I am delighted with the reception I have received from local families in particular.
"Our staff, some of whom have been with us for up to 30 years, are key to what it is that we do here and delivering a top-class service and putting the customer at the heart of the decision-making process has been the way that my family has done its business for over 80 years and it has worked well for us. I am looking forward to continuing to build the relationship between Monaghan’s and the community here in Headford."
It's said the newest outlet will provide 20 new jobs in Galway and become a welcome addition to the area of Headford.
Pat McDonagh, managing director of the company and founder of Supermacs in Ireland commented on the addition: "We are delighted to have the Monaghan’s on board with us. Ger and his wife Ann have a wealth of knowledge in this sector and come from one of the best known and most respected families in the country.
"The Monaghan family are part of the fabric of Galway society and the family’s roots are deep in the region. I have no doubt that Ger and Ann will be strong and active members of the Supermac’s family and that the Monaghan’s Service Station will go from strength to strength."
