New Initiative to Attract More Businesses to Drogheda Town Centre Launched by Drogheda & District Chamber - 18/03/2026

A new initiative aimed at attracting more businesses to Drogheda town centre has been launched by Drogheda & District Chamber, in partnership with Louth County Council, the Local Enterprise Office Louth and Love Drogheda BID.The initiative is designed to make opening a business in Drogheda more achievable by connecting entrepreneurs with practical guidance, local expertise and financial supports available to new businesses.A key incentive is Louth County Council’s Commercial Rates Waiver Scheme for 2026, which offers substantial savings for businesses locating in eligible vacant town centre premises.The scheme applies to commercial premises that have been vacant for more than 12 months and aims to encourage a wider range of businesses to locate in the town centre.We were joined in-studio this morning on The Agenda by President of Drogheda's Chamber of Commerce, Miriam Simon, to find out more about this.
