The existing Tullamore shopping centre opened its doors in 1993 and was anchored by Dunnes Stores. McDonalds also have a presence on the site for many years with a very successful drive through restaurant. There are a number of other smaller unit shops in the existing centre including a newsagent and pharmacy. Over the last couple of years Dunnes have expanded the size of their store and the car park. The design of the new scheme fully integrates into the existing centre and will allow easy movement between the new and the existing shops.
