A SHOP in the heart of Limerick is now offering a popular gift card, exclusive to Limerick shoppers, for purchase. The popular Limerick Gift Card is now available to buy in-store at Franklins, O’Connell Street. This is the first store the gift card can be purchased in, as it was only available to buy online or in Limerick Chamber up until this point.
“As a proud local business, we’re delighted to support this initiative,” said Junior Franklin, owner of Franklins, O’Connell Street. “Offering the purchase of the Limerick Gift Card in store is our way of encouraging people to spend locally and invest in Limerick’s future.” Backed by Limerick City and County Council, Limerick Chamber and Miconex, the Limerick Gift Card offers a convenient, flexible, and meaningful way to shop local.
