Audi Sligo will be owned and operated by Kevin and Neil Connolly who have invested €5 million in the dealership which hopes to create 20 new jobs in the Sligo region.
The future Sligo dealership is a major part of a five year investment plan by Audi in Ireland which highlights the company's drive to become the number one prestige car brand in Ireland by 2015.
Audi is undertaking a restructuring of their franchise retail network with a collective investment of €80 million over the next three years, resulting in a nationwide network of 10 dedicated Audi dealerships servicing the whole country.
Dealer Principal Kevin Connolly said the family has been in the motor business since 1939 and he and his brother Neil are third generation.
