The home-town of Taoiseach Brian Cowen has recently seen the opening of the 100th Subway store in Ireland. Subway franchisee Peter Mark Wheeler has opened the 100th outlet in Tullamore on Harbour Street.
Peter Mark said: ‘This is my first Subway store. I had no idea that it was the 100th Subway store to open in the Republic of Ireland until I received word this week. I’ve been working on getting the store open for months and this was a great surprise.
‘I’ve always wanted to be my own boss and to create jobs for local people. I looked at a few options and owning a Subway store was the one which stood out. Opening a business during a recession is not something I am worried about. My next big challenge is to get Brian Cowen to officially open the store.’
