SUMMARY

Abstract

In response to increasing demand for data concerning the dynamic economy and growth markets of Northern Ireland and The Republic of Ireland, Mintel has developed a series of reports covering a wide variety of sectors within both of these dynamic regions. Each one provides detailed coverage of key drivers as well as providing the very latest volume and value data. Also included are assessments of emerging trends, the activities of existing market players, brand ownership details, supply structures, future scenarios and statistical forecasts.

The Irish Series is segmented in the same manner as Mintel's UK reports, namely Finance, Leisure, Market, Retail and 'Specials'. This provides unparalleled coverage and will be a must for all companies who are either already active in this region, or will be looking to enter these distinct marketplaces in the future.

This report has been produced as part of Mintel's Irish Series and is sold in Ireland exclusively through our sales agency, OCO Consulting, based in Belfast.
