Bandon Business Group established

Bandon Business Group.

A new group with a desire to help promote what Bandon has to offer has been established.

This group, calling themselves the 'Bandon Business Group' has come to light on the heels of the success of other events that have promoted the town.

The voluntary group, still looking for more interested members is currently in the process of brainstorming interested parties from the Bandon area. They hope to analyse their findings, categorise them under different headings, priorotise the suggestions and then realise some of the ideas mentioned.

Bandon is a great place to live, has a huge amount to offer, has a vibrant a plentiful supply of activities for all, has excellent schools, a great sense of charity, a wide range of services and a skilled workforce but yet does not promote itself as a place to live, work, do your purchasing or as a location to establish your business.

The group have emphasised the point that they are a voluntary group who have not yet had the opportunity to visit every business in the Bandon area. While they want every business to feel included in the decision making process, they need ideas, feedback and suggestions from all stakeholders in the business community.

To facilitate commination, they can be contacted on 086 3422222 or via email on bandonbusinessgroup@gmail.com

More updates to follow soon.
