distributors and business leaders with a view to

The Councils have been working closely with the IACC
to promote the North West region and are delighted
that Muff Liquor and Baronscourt Brewing can avail
of the unique opportunity to further develop their
exports into the US market.
Head of Enterprise in Donegal, Michael Tunney said
“We have an amazing cohort of businesses in Donegal
and we are working hard now with our businesses to
find out what really drives the people who are
exporting so we can help others achieve that too.
This trip is just one part of that strategy and we
are confident that the links we have been forging
over the past few years in places like Philadelphia,
Boston and New York through the Diaspora project
will bear fruit for businesses here.”
The delegation departed to Philadelphia on Wednesday
15th May.
Further trade missions are scheduled to take place
to both Boston and Philadelphia in November when
both Councils will be supporting a range of local
companies to assess their readiness to export and
gear up to target and explore new business
opportunities in export markets. |
