eBay abandons Sligo operations center plans
Published July 29th, 2007
The online auction firm and its payments subsidiary PayPal already employ about 1,200 people in Dublin. Industry sources said the firm was looking at opening a base outside Dublin and was close to selecting Sligo, but has decided to expand in the capital instead.
Industry sources said the decision had been taken recently and was a significant disappointment to IDA Ireland, which is trying to encourage development outside Dublin.
A spokesman for eBay said it had not made any official expansion announcement and could not comment on any plans.
