DENVER, May 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- TAB Boards International, Inc., the world's largest franchise system providing peer advisory boards, business coaching and alignment training for business leaders, announces its continued global expansion into the Republic of Ireland.  Master Franchisee PJ Timmins, an established business influence in Ireland, will own and operate the new TAB office out of Dublin. 

Jason Zickerman, CEO and President of TAB Boards International, Inc., realizes the significance of TAB's growth into the Republic of Ireland.  "I am absolutely thrilled TAB is entering the Republic of Ireland, particularly through the leadership of a capable and experienced master franchise owner.  PJ Timmins has a long history of demonstrated commitment to the community.  He is the perfect partner to bring the same valuable services to the business community throughout Ireland that TAB is currently bringing to other business communities around the world."

PJ Timmins is already a firm believer in TAB's advisory board model, as he expressed, "I have been a huge fan of peer boards for many years. I even persuaded my wife to join one for her business. The opportunity to bring TAB Boards to Ireland was a compelling one as its proposition for Irish SME's is both timely and essential for those wishing to bring their businesses forward."  Timmins also articulated his perceptions of Ireland's business environment:  "Ireland's recovery from the economic collapse is now underway. TAB's proven systems and global experience with thousands of private businesses will prove to be an enormous help for Irish businesses who will lead this recovery.  I am delighted to bring TAB to Ireland."

Michele Fishman, TAB's Vice President of International Development, has greatly anticipated the Ireland expansion. "I have seen the influence of the TAB system in other countries, and I know TAB's proprietary tools and resources will be of incalculable benefit to Ireland's small business owners," said Fishman. Expansion into the Republic of Ireland follows TAB's successful operations in the United States, England, Canada, Germany, New Zealand, Scotland, and Venezuela.
