Kieran Ruttledge of Tralee Chamber Alliance is encouraging people to do five things to support local business.
JANUARY has nearly passed and many New Year’s Resolutions have already been broken but Tralee Chamber Alliance are encouraging Tralee people to do five simple things to help boost the local economy in 2015.
They’ve made five suggestions that could help businesses in Tralee prosper this year as they online below:
“1. Do one major shop every week in Tralee – the county capital and home of a great choice when it comes to retail therapy with an abundance of shops, cafes, restaurants and parking.

2. Visit an all-weather attraction in Tralee every month in 2015 – Aqua Dome, Tralee Sports and Leisure Centre, Tralee Bay Wetlands Centre, Kerry County Museum, Siamsa Tire Theatre, The Playdium, Manor Karting, Bowling Buddies, Blennerville Windmill, Aqua Golf and Crag Caves (that’s 11 months covered from February to December).
3. Take the family out for a meal at least once a month in Tralee – it won’t cost the earth and there’s plenty of menus to choose from in your county capital.
4. Get out of the office and hold a business meeting in a Tralee hotel, café or pub once a month.
5. Invite all the contacts in your phone and on Facebook to book a short break in Tralee in 2015 – they don’t all have to come at once!”
The CEO of Tralee Chamber Alliance, Kieran Ruttledge, said: “We cannot operate without the support of our members and we need more new members in 2015. Tralee needs a strong voice to represent the business community and in order to be heard we intend to build our membership base in 2015. Tralee will only ever move forward if the business community unites and works together with a positive attitude.”
Tralee Chamber Alliance and Tralee Municipal District worked closely together over the Christmas season.
“The Christmas lights were the envy of towns from Donegal to Waterford, while the free parking and programme of events attracted much local and national media attention and a large number of visitors to Tralee,” said Kieran Ruttledge.
Anyone – business or individual – who is interested in supporting the efforts to strengthen Tralee’s position as Kerry’s County Capital, can join Tralee Chamber Alliance.
