Tesco creates 1200 new jobs in Ireland – Retail Jobs News
Tuesday, April 15th, 2008
Tesco has announced plans to create over 1,200 jobs this year at 16 new stores across Ireland.
Tesco currently employs over 13,000 people in Ireland and the new jobs announcement is an indication of Tesco’s success. It is estimated that 1 euro of every 4 euro we spend on shopping in Ireland is lodged in a Tesco till. It has reported a 10% increase in sales to almost €3bn for the year to February.
Will this mean that they will be dropping their prices?
I doubt it BUT I did hear the Tesco CEO Ireland on the TV tonight and he did expect prices to drop. This is only because of the exchange rates.
Its looks like we could be eating ourselves out of a slump.
