Cork traders plan ‘Plunkett Quarter’ to improve Oliver Plunkett St

Traders on one of Cork’s busiest pedestrian streets have united to improve the visitor and shopping experience in their area.

Business owners on Oliver Plunkett St have set up the “Plunkett Quarter” initiative in a bid to carve out a unique identity in and around the street and make it a go-to destination.

Clodagh Daly of Daly Opticians, who has been working on the project with Valerie Finnegan Cahill of Ikon Hair Design for almost two years, said traders would work with Cork City Council to harness their passion for and knowledge of their neighbourhood to create a welcoming, exciting, and vibrant experience whether you want to shop, eat, drink, be pampered, or just have fun in and around the street.
