Mullingar gift card relaunches

Another major development for Mullingar Chamber this year was the relaunch of the Mullingar gift card scheme.

Launched in 2013, the card has recorded €2.5m in sales, and €500 million was generated in 2024.

It now includes a digital card platform and has been rebranded to make it more accessible.

“The purpose of the scheme is to retain money in the local economy, and it has done that successfully,” said chamber president James Burke at a council SPC meeting last week, adding that they are well set up for a busy festive season.
