Barons: A Legacy of Elegance is no stranger to Dublin. Before moving for a time to Stoneridge Mall, Barons served the Dublin community from 1980 – 1995. After re-evaluating their marketing strategy, owner Ronnie Heller realized that it was time to move back to Dublin. Their spacious new store is located in Hacienda Crossings.
"Barons believes in education and we are giving 2% of sales from August 3rd through August 17th to DPIE,” says Ronnie Heller. “We know Dublin supports us, and we are proud to support DPIE in Dublin."
