History
Michael Guineys first opened its doors in 1971 on Thomas Street in Dublin, offering quality discount Bedding, Curtains and Home Furnishings. In the decades since, the family-run business has quickly established itself as a leader in stocking high-quality Bedding, Curtains, Homewares, Fashion and Accessories at affordable prices for its customers.
Stores were later opened on North Earl Street and Talbot Street, in Dublin City Centre.
Guineys’ success in Dublin led the company to open its first store outside of the capital on Oliver Plunkett Street in Cork city centre in 1992. Guineys has introduced Menswear, Ladieswear and a Baby & Nursery Departments in more recent times - offering the same quality of ranges as is found in our growing Bedding and Homeware sections.

In 2013, Guineys opened it's first store in Clonmel, Tipperary, followed by Mullingar, Westmeath. Michael Guineys opened its doors in Kilkenny in 2015 with Dundalk & Belfast opening in 2018.
