Home furnishing company IKEA is to open its second outlet in Dublin with the creation of about 30 new jobs.
IKEA will open its first "Order and Collection Point" in Carrickmines in south Dublin as part of its expansion programme in the Irish market.
The new Order and Collection Point is part of the company's plans to test and explore new sales channels that make IKEA more accessible to customers.
The new store is expected to open this summer.
At 15,000sq ft it will be a scaled-down version of the Swedish company's superstore in Ballymun in north Dublin, which opened in 2009.
While the new store will not carry the full product range to take home, customers will be able to order from the full range available at the IKEA Dublin store for home delivery or for collection at the collection point.
A small range of products will also be available for customers to take home on the day of their visit.
