AIB invests in refurbishments in two Offaly branches

AIB plan to refurbish two Offaly branches as part of the €40 million upgrade scheme to the branch network across Ireland.

Tullamore and Edenderry are set to benefit from the refurbishments, with the Edenderry branch set to receive a full refurbishment, while the Tullamore branch will have interior and exterior improvements made.

The investment will reduce AIB's operational carbon emissions by a further 10%, and will help support AIB’s strategy to be net zero across Scope 1 and 2 emissions* by 2030.

Mid-East Regional Retail Director, Niall Grogan said: “AIB has a longstanding commitment to communities across Offaly and we’re proud to continue that by refurbishing our branch in Edenderry, with improvements made to our Tullamore branch.

"While our customers are availing of our digital services more, they also like to be able to come and talk with us for financial advice and for we’re looking forward to meeting them in our newly upgraded branches.”

Managing Director of Retail Banking Geraldine Casey said: “We are delighted to announce this major €40 million investment in our nationwide branch network. While the vast majority of our customers manage their day-to-day finances, when they want and where they want digitally, we recognise that they also value the face-to-face service provided in our branches, particularly when it comes to important financial decisions and support.

"Our branches will be places where all our customers are comfortable discussing their finances with us in a welcoming environment. That’s why we’re investing €40 million to upgrade these locations and supporting AIB’s strategy to further lower our carbon emissions. We remain committed to these communities and look forward to making further investments in our branch network in the future.”
