Clieveragh, Listowel’s economic hub

-

ALL successful economies require ‘a hub’ in which to grow and prosper and one locality that fits this descriptio­n perfectly is Listowel Business Park at Clieveragh Industrial Estate, on the edge of Listowel town.

This is a centre of business activity that has grown through good times and bad, illustrati­ng its ability to transition and evolve with the times.

From wholesaler­s and highend manufactur­ing products, to quality culinary foodstuffs, agri supplies, tool hire and tyre maintenanc­e, Clieveragh Industrial Estate punches far in excess of its weight as a business hub.

Clieveragh Industrial Estate is also an integral part of the wider Listowel economy and its environs, which is why we, as consumers, should avail of its services when we can.

Not only does Clieveragh attract business to the town, it creates important employment that benefits Listowel and north Kerry’s overall economic wellbeing. This makes Clieveragh Industrial Estate all the more indispensa­ble to the region.

Widely considered a necessary focal point for Listowel, business acumen is in plentiful supply at Clieveragh. Each business represents a multidisci­plinary outlook on trade and economics.

Many of the businesses at Clieveragh are long establishe­d ones, hence their reputation in the line of services they provide.

There is as much an internatio­nal dimension being catered for at Clieveragh Industrial Estate as there is a local market. Even in these uncertain times when social distancing is a priority, the businesses in Clieveragh that do cater for public footfall are able to offer ample space, car parking and overall comfort.

Lastly, while it goes without saying that it is vital to keep supporting local businesses as often as we can throughout these uncertain times, we must also develop a mind-set whereby supporting local business becomes a civic duty.

These same businesses keep our day to day services going, they keep shelves stocked, and they keep rural economies vibrant. But most important of all they keep employment in north Kerry - employment that enables people to live in their own communitie­s and help regenerate their locality.

Clieveragh Industrial Estate is Listowel’s economic hub and a key player in business, which is why it merits our support.
