TEN new jobs will be created in the coming days with the opening of a new cafe where Charlie Nelligan’s Coffee Shop used to be located.

Mr Nelligan retired from the coffee shop on Christmas Eve and sold the business to Jaroslaw Lukasiewicz, a Polish man, who has been living in Ireland for the past nine years.

Now the businessman and his Russian-born wife Sviatlana, are set to open ‘Coffee Start’ with the creation of  10 new jobs. They are in the process of giving the cafe a brand new look and are looking forward to welcoming customers by the weekend or Monday.

“I was looking for a few years for a place to open the business in Ireland, but the locations I visited weren’t right. So we decided to locate here. Tralee is a beautiful town with everything together in one place – lots of different shops and restaurants,” said Jaroslaw.

“We’re building an international team who will work together, including a lady who worked in the premises here before and a chef who has worked in some of the restaurants in town. Other workers will be Polish, Spanish, Malaysian, Irish, Chinese and Russian,” he said.

“We’re going to deliver fantastic coffee and sandwiches to give the customers great food at good prices. This is our target,” he said.

He also has plans for later in the year, including possible evening opening as well as other ideas.

Good luck to Jaroslaw and his team. It’s good to see another business opening on The Mall.
