190 jobs safe after receiver appointed to Nestor's Super Valu
The Musgrave Group has said that three Super Valu and one Centra supermarkets in Galway City will continue to trade, and all 190 jobs are safe, despite the appointment of a receiver.
The receiver was appointed to the Nestor’s Group - which operates the Super Valu premises at Fr Griffin Road, Oranmore and Ballybane and a Centra premises in Doughiska - last evening.
A spokesperson for Musgraves – which owns the two supermarket brands – confirmed to the Connacht Tribune that a receiver had been appointed to Nestor’s, but the move was not connected to them (Musgraves) as wholesalers.
“The supermarkets are gone into receivership, but continue to trade as normal. No jobs are affected,” the spokesperson said.
It is understood that around 190 people are employed between the four premises.
