     Navan plays host to a good mix of retail uses, from the core
     town centre offering, to the two retail parks on the outskirts of
     the town.

     Navan Town Centre dominates the retail offering within the
     town and surrounding area with a variety of comparison
     and convenience outlets ranging from local retailers to
     international brands.
                                                                                                                                                Blackwater Retail Park
     Trimgate Street, which is the main street in Navan town,
     provides for more administrative, food and beverage type uses.

     The two retail parks on the outskirts of the town, namely
     Navan Retail Park and Blackwater Retail Park, provide an
     excellent complement to the Town Centre, housing many                ALDI
     of the household bulky goods retailers such as Woodies,
     Homebase, PC World/Curry’s, Halfords and Smyth’s Toys.

                                                                                  McDonalds
     cinema at Navan Town Centre is an excellent addition to
     the scheme and it is clear that the strength of Navan Town
     Centre’s retail offering will ensure that it retains its status as
     being the epicentre of retailing in the north-east.
                                                                                                 Planned New Bus Depot
