Sister companies, Opticare and Audiocare have opened a new shared branch in south Belfast.
The independent opticians and hearing care services providers have invested £150,000 in the new Lisburn Road venture, creating four jobs.
Owned by the husband and wife optometrist team of Michael and Jade McCourt, the three floor clinic, which offers a range of optical and audiology services, is the fifth standalone branch opened by the pair since 2016.
It brings the total number employed by the two companies to 20.
Audiocare also operates satellite hearing clinics in an additional six locations across Northern Ireland.
“Over the last eight years we have built a trusted reputation and the demand for our optical and audiology services has continued to grow,” said Michael McCourt.
“We felt the time was right to open our first Opticare branch in Belfast - the city’s second Audiocare location – and not far from where I went to school.
“Our number one aim is to help people look after their eye and hearing health and we look forward to making it more accessible for people across Belfast to avail of our expert services and clinical excellence.”
The new Lisburn Road branch was officially opened by Pamela Ballantine, who is starring in Audiocare’s first ever advert which has just launched on TV.
