    I second the mullingar option, does not even have to be there, somewhere outside the city on the N4 or N7 or N11 or one of the main roads. far enough outside the city for it not to be an issue for dublin people to get to and also making sure people outside dublin do not have to come in to dublin.
    I mean Mullingar is about 35 - 40 mins away from Lucan (toll road) depending on traffic.

    Well it can't be much worse than Wavin. What else does Balbriggan have at the moment? Sonopress? or is that in Swords. Not much to shout about anyway.

    Excellent idea.

    Sonopress is in Balbriggan and Swords.

    There is also Bridgestone Ireland and the Passport Office (production), Jack Murphy, Tayto distrubtion centre.... Thats a few off the top of my head. There are many medium sized business based in Fingal Bay too and a lot more will be up the road in the M1 Business Park.

    Anyhow Balbriggan is a commutor town to be honest and I don't think it'd have the local workforce for IKEA to source at the moment, gone are the days of the working mills in Balbriggan. Maybe give it ten years.
