Tenders have been issued for a feasibility study to redevelop Cork’s historic Shandon Butter Market into a tech and innovation hub.

Recreate Shandon CLG, a non-profit enterprise set up in 2020, has secured funding from Enterprise Ireland under the Regional Enterprise Innovation Scoping Scheme to explore new uses for the iconic city centre building.
