The urgent need for small business to move their business online due to Covid-19 led to a 1,200% increase in the number of trading online vouchers provided by Cork City’s Local Enterprise Office last year.

The 535 vouchers issued by the office in 2020 assist businesses to start or improve their online presence and provide support for digital marketing.
