Eight5zero Group

Eight5Zero Group are based in Castlewellan, County Down in Northern Ireland. Our Group currently comprises Retail (Fresh Food Centre) and Property, Leisure, Travel and Tourism interests (Hillyard House Hotel, Castlewellan and Hillyard Mews Self Catering, Newcastle, County Down). Our Vision is to secure a position as Northern Ireland's most trusted and respected retail and hospitality group, serving our community and building a sustainable business for the benefit of future generations of staff and customers. As we enter a new era of growth and prosperity for our communities and employees several initiatives will be launched. The first of these lays the foundation for our ambitions. We have rebranded to Eight5Zero Group - inspired by the Mourne Mountains (the highest mountains in Northern Ireland), the highest of which is Slieve Donard at 850m. Our Group Purpose: To enrich the lives of our local communities through employment opportunities, excellent customer service and memorable experiences in retail and hospitality. Our Group Values: POSITIVE Even when the weather isn’t perfect, we still see the beauty of the Mournes around us. It’s in our nature to share this positive outlook, channelling our optimism into every welcome, every chat, every communication, making our company into a place where everyday interactions make every day more cheerful. PROACTIVE Our people never wait to be asked, they already know. It’s in our nature to anticipate what’s needed next and be fast and efficient in our response - we have to be because our customers will stand for nothing less. When we promise to do something, we always deliver, because this is how we build trust in our team and with our customers. PROUD Our families, our landscape, our livelihoods, the ties that bind us run deep. We take care of each other and the communities around our stores. We aren’t just a place to go, we are part of something bigger, a place to be proud of.
