Debenhams
In 2007, British retailer Debenhams took over the prime retail spaces formerly operated by the national Roches Stores chain, which ceased trading that year after over 100 years in business. Today, Debenhams Ireland operates four stores in Dublin and two in Cork, as well as outlets in Galway, Limerick and Waterford. Also strong in beauty, gifts, and interior items, the Debenhams fashion department runs an impressive Designers at Debenhams portfolio, working with big names like Henry Holland, Julien Macdonald and Ireland’s own John Rocha. Though the store briefly entered examinership earlier this year, a plan has since been formulated to save it, much to shoppers relief.
