Molloy welcomes 170 jobs boost to Coalisland

AN £8.7million investment has ensured 170 new jobs created in Coalisland with the construction of a Supermarket.

Francie Molloy MLA, Joint First Minister Martin McGuinness MLA and South Tyrone Mayor Phelim Gildernew and Michelle Gildernew MP officiated at the official opening of the new Newell Stores Supermarket on Monday morning.

Welcoming the opening of the Newell Stores Supermarket and the 170 new jobs boost in Coalisland, Francie Molloy MLA said,

“This is excellent news for the people of Coalisland, with a much needed injection of 170 new jobs and £8.7million investment into the area. Newell stores have to be congratulated, they are a local business investing in a rural area and its people and they have transformed a derelict site, which was an eyesore into a modern Supermarket.

“This will help provide a stimulus to the local economy providing jobs for everyone, particularly young people who have been hit hard during the economic downturn.

“The opening of Newell Stores in Coalisland today follows the recent announcement of 80 jobs by DMAC engineering bringing a total of 250 new jobs to Coalisland in the space of a month. Sinn Féin will continue to work with local indigenous businesses to help them expand, creating long term and sustainable employment across Mid Ulster.”
