Dairygold opens new Co-Op Superstores at Mogeely

10th September 2019

Mogeely site now a central Hub for Dairygold Agri Business

Up to 300 people turned out to celebrate the official opening of Dairygold’s new Co-Op Superstores at Mogeely, in East Cork. The new store is part of an €11.5 million investment by Dairygold to enhance its retail store network creating a modern retail offering, purpose built to serve customers’ needs into the future.

The investment has transformed the store’s physical appearance creating a modern shopping experience while also significantly expanding the range of goods on offer. A new feed store and yard with ample parking combine to make the store an attractive option for farmers and customers across the East Cork region.

Speaking at the opening, Mogeely Co-Op Superstores Manager, Helen Neville said; “The new Co-Op Superstores at Mogeely marks an exciting new chapter for our business.  We want to thank our loyal customers for their patience during the works and we look forward to serving them and others across the wider East Cork region into the future.”

The Dairygold facility at Mogeely also boasts a new agri-hub for meetings and technical farm support along with its expanded grain centre.

Alongside Co-Op Superstores Mogeely, the development of the TINE SA Jarlsberg Cheese manufacturing facility is rapidly taking shape. TINE SA, Norway’s largest farmer owned dairy co-operative has partnered with Dairygold to produce its Jarlsberg cheese at this bespoke facility in Mogeely. Overall, this marks an exciting time for Dairygold in the East Cork area.

John O’ Carroll, Head of Retail at Dairygold emphasised the significance of the Mogeely investment; Today’s store opening is an exciting milestone in Dairygold’s ongoing investment in our retail store network to support our members’ growth into the future. This is the second of five new store developments and we look forward to opening three more in the coming months. It also marks the significant re-development of the overall site here at Mogeely.”

Dairygold Vice-Chairman Edmund Lynch added; “As Dairygold Vice-Chairman and an East Cork farmer I’m very pleased to officially open our new Co-Op Superstores in Mogeely. Through this investment Dairygold has made a firm commitment to the future importance of Mogeely as a centre of the Society’s Agri Business. The overall investment in Mogeely has created a state-of-the-art agri business hub that will be central to servicing the needs of our Members and customers across the East Cork region for many years to come.” He added.
