Kilkenny City business has been dealt another blow...
The Zip Yard, a clothing alterations and tailoring shop based in Irishtown in Kilkenny City, has confirmed it is to close its local base.
The store said the decision is due to ‘unforeseen circumstances’, but re-assured customers that their Carlow outlet will remain open.
The Kilkenny store’s final trading day will be Saturday, October 3.
The news is another blow to the local economy following news that John Joe Cullen’s Butcher is to close on Saturday, September 19.
The well known butcher announced his retirement after five decades in the profession on Monday.
