Applegreen, one of Ireland’s largest roadside retail operators, has opened a new M&S Food shop within its existing store at Duleek, Co Meath.

The addition of the M&S range in store involved a significant redevelopment of the Duleek location, which is on the Drogheda Road just off the M1 and is part of Applegreen’s continuous development to bring the best customer experience on the road to Irish customers.

The opening of M&S Food at Applegreen Duleek marks the 14th location for Applegreen’s highly successful partnership with M&S Food. A further seven M&S Food at Applegreen “shop-in-shop” stores are planned before the end of this year.

The new Duleek store will now offer over 400 M&S products, including Irish customers’ favourite M&S Food ranges, such as fresh fruit and salads, Irish sandwiches, quality fresh flowers and convenient lunch and dinner options.

Leading M&S treats, such as Percy Pig sweets, M&S cookies, and Colin the Caterpillar cakes will also be available in-store.

Applegreen Duleek will also feature Click & Collect services for M&S Clothing and Home product ranges, providing customers with the convenience of ordering quality clothing, home and beauty essentials online at www.marksandspencer.com/ie, and picking up their purchases at the new Duleek store.

Applegreen’s partnership with M&S Food complements the company’s leading roadside proposition in the Irish market and brings the M&S Food range to a much wider Irish customer base.

Mark Ryan, Head of M&S at Applegreen, said:

“We are delighted to bring the M&S Food range to our customers in the local Duleek area, marking the 14th Applegreen store in Ireland that now offers the M&S Food range.

“With a wide range of high-quality products, our customers can enjoy more choice and convenience when shopping in our stores. Since the partnership between Applegreen and M&S began in 2023, we have seen great success in stores nationwide and we are excited to continue this expansion in more locations across Ireland over the coming year.”

M&S Trading Director for Ireland and Northern Ireland Laura Harper, commented:

“…. The rollout of M&S Food in Applegreen stores nationwide has been a very exciting concept to customers and has enabled M&S Food to reach new communities across Ireland. We look forward to welcoming local customers and visitors through the doors in Duleek to shop our M&S Food range and continuing our expansion in Applegreen stores nationwide this year.”
