Golden Discs is returning to Galway after a 12-year absence as the company is due to open a new store in Eyre Square on Monday.
The Galway store will be Golden Discs' 23rd and the 3,000 square foot space will be the company's third largest behind their Dundrum store in Dublin and Patrick Street in Cork.
The company is currently recruiting around 15 to 20 full and part-time positions, which will bring total staff to over 200 nationwide.
Golden Discs CEO Stephen Fitzgerald said the company had been looking for a suitable site in Galway for some years now and jumped at the opportunity to locate on Eyre Square.
"Galway has such a strong music heritage and we are really excited to be a part of it once again," he added.
Golden Discs said the Eyre Square store will stock an extensive range of new and catalogue vinyl across all genres.
It noted that vinyl sales have been huge for the company over the last few years and as the streaming market matures, many people are turning to vinyl as their preferred ownership format.
