Murphy's are going global, opening their first international store in the Pavilion Shopping Mall in Dalian - they have yet to announce an opening date, but they say it is coming very soon. Tons of customers and fans of the brand left comments on where they wanted them to come next. Tourists who tried Murphy's on their Irish travels left comments, with many hoping they would come to the United States (Dallas, Wisconsin, and Florida all got specific shout-outs). Some Irish people were gutted they weren't opening nearer to them, with many asking for one to be opened in Northern Ireland, and others asking for a Murphy's in Waterford.
