Miranda Lyons, Communication and Interior Design Manager who joined the IKEA store when it opened in 2009, said: “It's been an incredible journey watching IKEA Ballymun evolve into a cherished hub for our amazing customers throughout Ireland. Since my journey began in 2009, the growth has been astonishing, and it's an honour to be a part of this transformation and to celebrate our 40 millionth customer at the store.
