Firms want collective buying power
05.05.10
BUSINESS development
group Inishowen Inc., has come up with a unique plan
to help local companies cut the cost of utilities
like electricity through their collective buying
power.
The new initiative launched on Monday is aimed at
reducing costs for local businesses and helping to
create jobs.
The local business lobby group says the collective
buying power of Inishowen businesses could help
"save millions in the local economy".
Inishowen Inc's Francis Callaghan explained:
“Electricity cost reductions will be our initial
focus. Our collective purchasing power in this
market has massive potential. It's not just about
getting the best possible price for our members,
it’s also about negotiating the best terms for them
so they are not tied to expensive contracts.” |

The initiative is
supported by Buncrana Chamber of Commerce and
Ballyliffin Development group.
Kieran Henderson outlined how the plan will work.
“It’s simple - go to Inishowen.com and register for
free or give one of your local reps a call or drop
into a local agent to sign up. We want all people in
business to register no matter how big or small
their enterprise, from B&Bs and farms to large
businesses and retail outlets and even if you work
from home and do not have a fixed premises."
Inishowen Inc is also including community groups in
their programmes and welcomes their registration
also.
