Shirt company closure results in 51 job losses
A shirt manufacturing company in Co Donegal has announced that it is to close one of its plants with the loss of 51 jobs.
Clubman Omega Ltd will close its Carndonagh plant but will continue to manufacture shirts at its Buncrana base.
The company said it could not justify running two plants in the county and "with regret" it was forced to close one down.
Management at Clubman Omega, which has been trading for almost 18 years, said it was confident about the future despite today's announcement.
