We would like to remind you that The Real Deal 2019, Ireland’s premier SME event, will take place in Goffs, Co. Kildare on October 10th.
This week we were delighted to announce that Breege O’Donoghue will be joining the Legend of Business Interview at The Real Deal 2019.
Breege O’Donoghue of Penneys/ Primark, who officially retired from the business in 2016 after 37 years of outstanding leadership is joining The Real Deal 2019 where she will discuss her career in a one-on-one interview with Matt Cooper. Aside from her involvement in Penneys/ Primark, Breege is currently the Chair and Non-Exec Director for a number of businesses.
Breege, with others, was instrumental to the success of Penneys/Primark forming part of a tight-knit leadership team that transformed the Irish fashion retailer into a global success story. She has been one of the key drivers of Primark’s expansion over the years, such as its move into the US in 2015 which started with a store in Boston.
Under the guidance of the leadership team, Primark has gone from strength to strength with more than 360 stores in 12 markets, with 80,000+ staff, and in Year Ending September 2018, had revenues of £7.4bn with profits of £8.43m.
Join Breege on the day where she will discuss her journey which started in a small village in the West of Ireland.
Other speakers on the day include Bobby Healy, Alan Cox, Helen Tynan, David McKernan, Donagh Kelly, Nikki Evans and Liam Sheedy with one more speaker to be announced. Each panel will be moderated by Matt Cooper.
