Shaws Athlone expands with new home bedding department

Following a successful store opening in October 2024, Shaws Department Stores has launched a brand-new Home Bedding Department at its Athlone location in Golden Island Shopping Centre

The new department, which has just opened, brings a curated selection of stylish and affordable home comforts to Shaws customers in the Athlone area.

This expansion comes in direct response to growing demand from customers, who have expressed interest in their home and bedding ranges. The new area will feature an exclusive range of seasonal duvet covers, duvets, pillows, cushions, home accessories, and more, including collections from The Home Collection, exclusively available at Shaws.

Store Manager Samantha Hoare: “We’re incredibly excited to be opening our new Home Bedding Department in Athlone. Since opening last October, we've had amazing feedback from our customers, and it's clear that home is a big priority.

"This new space has been thoughtfully curated to reflect that, with beautiful, quality pieces that offer great value. We can’t wait to welcome everyone in and help them find something special for their home.”

Founded in 1864 by Henry Shaw, Shaws Department Stores has grown from a single drapery store in Mountmellick, Co. Laois, to a trusted name in Irish retail. Over 160 years later, the company continues to evolve its offering and strengthen its presence across Ireland, now with 16 stores nationwide.

Known for its mix of fashion, beauty, lingerie, and home, Shaws remains committed to delivering exceptional service and a superior shopping experience.

Shaws Athlone originally opened its doors in October 2024, becoming the 16th store in the group. With a strong team of 20 staff members led by Samantha Hoare, the store has quickly become a popular destination for style-conscious shoppers in the midlands.

The addition of the Home Bedding Department marks another exciting milestone in the store’s journey and reflects Shaws dedication to listening to its customers and adapting its offering to meet their needs.
