The Stationery Store team in Naas
The Stationery Store in Naas, county Kildare is celebrating its 40th birthday with a week of fantastic giveaways every day until this Friday.
Customers are invited to drop into the premises on the Dublin Road where they may be lucky to win a spot prize.
Then a big party is planned on Friday, March 14 where there will be some treats and bigger prizes on offer, K Cruiser will be broadcasting live!
Opened in 1985
Director Edel McGarr has been with The Stationery Store since it opened in 1985 alongside the original owners - Helen Magee and the late Hugh Magee Senior.
Long-serving employee Theresa Ronaldson is also a Director.
Hugh Senior passed away in December 2023 and is still fondly remembered by staff and customers.
Helen and Hugh Senior’s son Hugh, has been with the company since 1995 and is now the Managing Director.
Hugh specialises in the “Office Furniture and Equipment” end of the business; this area of the business has grown immensely since back in the early days.
Loyalty
Edel said: "We have always been blessed with loyal staff, loyal customers and loyal suppliers.
“Our 40 years in business is a big achievement for us and we want to celebrate that with our Appreciation Week.
“We're asking people to pop into the store all week and they could be lucky and win a spot prize!”
Everybody who follows, likes and shares the store on Facebook will also be entered into a draw to win a prize.
In a world of electronic communication, The Stationery Store still encourages people to drop into the store for friendly customer service.
As well as the retail business, The Stationery Store has over 300 business customers which it supplies products to.
With free parking and being in a very close proximity to Dublin it is very beneficial to the business and enables The Stationery Store to give an exceptional service.
The Stationery Store will mark another milestone next month when shop manger Johnny Kelly retires after 25 years of service.
Congratulations to The Stationery Store and here's to the next 40 years!
