Staff In Sit-In At Closed Limerick Store

Thirty former employees of Limerick independent food store Ivans of Caherdavin are holding a sit-in.

The store announced its closure earlier this week.

The staff are occupying the store in a dispute over pay cheques and redundancy packages.

It is understood that the workers claim they were given no notice of closure, only finding out about the closure the night before the public announcement.
