Amazon has announced plans to open a fulfilment centre in Baldonnell in west Dublin.

There are also reports that Amazon is in talks about the possibility of locating a distribution facility and other infrastructure at Shannon Airport.

Could we soon see the launch of an Amazon.ie website?

Tech journalist Andy O'Donoghue, fashion and retail consultant Eddie Shanahan and Joan Henry, chief economist and head of research at Knight Frank, joined us to discuss what this would mean for Irish retail.
