Local Daybreak shop to close due to 'highly competitive market'

The well-known Daybreak store in Cutbush, Ballysax is to close this weekend.

The Vaughan family who operated the premises thanked its loyal customers for their support over the years.

The owners said that a 'highly competitive retail market' had led to the difficult decision to close.

The shop offered a wide range of groceries, as well as an in-store Deli and Off Licence.

A number of discount deals on products are currently available to clear stock.

A statement from the shop said: "Regretfully, we have taken the difficult decision to close Daybreak Cutbush.

"The shop will close at the end of day Saturday and cease trading.

"This is because of a highly competitive retail market.

"We would like to thank all of our loyal customers for their support over the last number of years."

The Daybreak faced competition from supermarkets in nearby towns like Kilcullen and Kildare Town.
