Doing a quick bit of research for a client.
Any examples of successfull online Irish stores?
By successfull I mean a business able to support a staff of 10 or more.

I was stuck in thinking of any online stores then sitting in the Luas this morning I seen a poster for Buy4Now - Arnotts, Easons, Atlantic Homecare and more online at Ireland's Online Shopping Centre and thought of this thread.

Yes. but how many of them are pure online and how many of them are actually success stories?

This might or might not be applicable but I do know that Shopping in Ireland - Amazon in Euro with ShopIreland.ie (an Amazon Euro denominated store-front) gets quite a lot of traffic based on the AOL data. They rankd quite well for (what I would imagine to be) some relatively high volume phrases.

Cant say if they are successful or not though.

They're not an actual shop though. They're just hooking into Amazon's affiliate system over XML
