In 2005, additional development was undertaken with the construction of a multi-storey car park and a new mall which included an office suite on the third floor. Jack & Jones, Vero Moda, H&M, New Look, Elvery's, Lifestyle Sports, Name It, and Easons all occupied space in the new mall, with a number of vacant units waiting for retail tenants on the upper mall. A new boardwalk/retail park was also constructed with outlets including Boots, Starbucks, Argos, and Peacocks.

Omni Park's three main anchors are Penneys, Tesco Ireland and New Look. Other retailers include Dealz, Argos Extra and Boots which opened in 2009. Eateries in Omni Park include Zao Restaurant, Eddie Rockets, Nandos, McDonald's, Burger King, Red Cherry Cafe, Costa Coffee, Starbucks, and O'Briens Sandwich Bar.
