Anyone been to Rathdowney Factory Outlet Mall ?

the company who were going to open a retail outlet in dundalk stated that to have a 'proper' outlet as in france or england it required a population of around 2m within a 50 mile radius or 60 minutes etc. hence dundalk was their preferred choice. but as we all know planning in this country takes forever and the banbridge outlet which was mooted long after the dundalk one was on a far faster track to planning permissing by being north of the border. hence the banbridge one will be open by april and as there is only room for one such outlet in this country the dundalk one is unlikely to go ahead. gather this will be a real factory outlet and not a mickey mouse job.

I went into one of those links provided by Tarfhead and M&S state that their outlet will be at least 30% cheaper than their other stores. won't suit the triedies of course but for us old timers............
the info supplied also shows that they have a population of 1.28m within 60 mins and 3m within 90 mins. so dublin is obviously within their target range.
