County Wexford Chamber have taken home two prestigious awards at this year’s Chambers Ireland Awards ceremony held at the Killashee Hotel, Naas, Co Kildare, on Thursday.

The Chamber won the Supporting Business Award for the successful integration of Enniscorthy & District Chamber. And it also won the Digital Campaigns Award for the launch of the County Wexford Shop Local Gift Card.

These achievements reflect the power of collaboration and community spirit. The Chamber extends its appreciation to its Board members Lorcán Kinsella, Brendan Crowley, and Ed Murphy for their instrumental roles in the integration process.

And they also want to thank the wider business community and Chamber members who rallied behind this initiative in 2024 – this support made all the difference.

The County Wexford Shop Local Gift Card was a true team effort, delivered just in time for Christmas 2024. Since its launch, it has generated an incredible €600,000 in sales, proving its value to our local economy.

A heartfelt thank you to the businesses and individuals who have used the scheme to gift employees and loved ones and to the nearly 200 outlets now accepting the card.

The Chamber also wish to recognise the ongoing support of Wexford County Council, and to thank Chambers Ireland for a fantastic awards ceremony, and acknowledge MC Ivan Yates for his insightful comments and generous remarks at the awards ceremony.

County Wexford Chamber remains committed to working for sustainable economic development and prosperity across County Wexford.

County Wexford Chamber was represented by Board member Lorcan Kinsella, CEO Paula Roche, and Development Officers Anne Dwyer and Deirdre O’Flynn.
