Brookes SuperValu Youghal represents over 130 years of family tradition in the heart of Youghal, dating back to 1888 when John Brookes first arrived as a thirteen-year-old apprentice. Now in its fourth generation under the Brookes family, this isn’t just a supermarket – it’s a cornerstone of the local community. Peter Brookes and his team of 72 dedicated staff are committed to showcasing the finest fresh local produce from Youghal and surrounding areas, proudly supporting over 40 local suppliers. From their humble beginnings as a grocery and wholesale business to becoming one of Ireland’s first SuperValu stores in the early 1980s, Brookes SuperValu has always lived by founder John Brookes’ philosophy: “I don’t pay your wages, the customer does!” This family-run store continues to keep money flowing in the local economy, providing employment and supporting community life in Youghal with the personal service and local knowledge that only comes from four generations of caring for their neighbours.
