Cathaoirleach, Cllr Paul Canning, states: “In 2024, we had 400 businesses participate in #BuyDonegal, making a significant impact on our local economy. The enthusiasm from both the Donegal community and our global Diaspora has been inspiring. We look forward to expanding this success further in 2025.”  

#BuyDonegal presents an excellent opportunity for consumers to find unique gifts from Donegal while supporting the local economy. The campaign encompasses a diverse range of sectors, including food and beverage producers, artisans, tourism, and retailers. It will be promoted through an online marketing strategy, including a dedicated website at buydonegal.com, where shoppers can browse an extensive selection of products and services from Donegal’s finest businesses. Visit the site now to explore the participating businesses and start planning your festive shopping list.

The enthusiastic response from both the business community and the public in previous years has been genuinely inspiring”.
