Northern Ireland shopping centre CastleCourt is set to create over 100 new jobs with 12 store openings in 12 months.

TK Maxx has returned to the Belfast centre after it first opened on the mall in April 1995, and officially opened to shoppers on Thursday, October 3, creating an additional 15 jobs, alongside the 65-strong staff which relocated with the business.

Now, CastleCourt has announced an additional number of outlets that have opened in recent weeks; Jacqueline Rooney Art and Rhiannon Cakes & Bakes.

The recent arrivals, plus the upcoming opening of a new fashion retailer and food court tenant soon to be announced, marks an impressive 12 new store openings in 12 months for the complex, representing a large investment from Holywood-based landlord, Wirefox, which has created over 100 new jobs.

It is the first city centre gallery for award-winning artist Jacqueline Rooney who has transformed her prominently located unit on the first floor into a space where shoppers can browse her work and imagine the pieces in their homes.
