Mr. Andrew Kinsella:

Absolutely. My business was located in Clonskeagh. For a period, there were three or four multiples situated within one or two miles of my business. Market share means everything to multiples. Even in a tight market one can see that more multiples have outlets that are decreasing in size. In the meantime, multiples are locating on Morehampton Road. I used to attract people from Ranelagh, for example, to my shop. Over the past four to six years, four or five new multiples have been established in Ranelagh. The competition is to do with market share, so the low-hanging fruit are the independent retailers, in my view.
