Kildare County Council's Local Enterprise Office is delighted to offer clients in the Craft & Creative Sector two very exciting opportunities.

Kildare LEO will collaborate with Kildare Village in the run up to Christmas 2023 by hosting a Pop Up Shop to showcase a selection of clients.

In addition Kildare LEO have secured a lease for a retail unit in Kildare Town to base a shop as part of the feasibility study to develop a permanent home for the craft & creative sector in Kildare.

Spaces within both retail opportunities will be limited and there will be an evaluation process of all expressions of interest.

Expression of interest forms must be completed and submitted by Friday 28th July at 2pm.

Please note that priority will be given to enterprises trading >12 months and with capability of manufacturing their product in volume to meet demand where required. You may also wish to avail of this opportunity to design/launch an additional product aimed specifically for the Christmas Market due to the time of year.
