Polonez is Ireland’s leading Eastern European food chain, with 44 stores across the country, including five in Northern Ireland, and we’re still growing. For over 20 years, we’ve been dedicated to providing a “Taste of Home” to Eastern European communities, while also serving as a gateway for Irish customers to explore the rich and diverse flavors of Eastern Europe.

Our story
We opened our first store in 2003 in Naas. It was one of the first Polish stores in Ireland and we aimed to deliver to our customers fresh quality products from their home country and bring Poland here in Ireland.
The company has constantly grown since then and now we have stores in 19 cities in Ireland and the UK: Dublin (17), Cork (2), Limerick (2), Galway (3), Athlone, Bray, Carlow, Cavan, Gorey, Mullingar, Naas, Navan, New Ross, Portlaoise, Sligo, Tullamore, Lusk and in UK: Newry, Ballymena, Lurgan, Dungannon, Belfast.
In 2018 we started to develop new concept stores, with a modern design and amazing shopping experience. We already have more than 20 newly refurbished stores and we are happy that our customers can find their favourite products easier and can feel more comfortable in the new stores.
We offer to our customers over 6000 Eastern European products, delivered from over 150 suppliers from Poland, Romania, Lithuania, Latvia, Moldova, Ukraine, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Hungary, Germany, Spain, etc. In Polonez stores you can find everything you need for your traditional meals.
