Mayo Fine Gael TD John O’Mahony is calling on people to shop in Mayo this Christmas and support Mayo employers and employees.
“Now, more than ever, the retail sector needs the support of its own people as do the people employed in it here in Mayo. Local employers contribute so much to the local community by means of employment and their support of local organisations through contributions and sponsorship,” Dep O’Mahony said.
“It’s highly unlikely that the retail giant operating outside of Mayo will support Mayo organisations on the same scale that the locals do and I think it’s important we all take that on board when we set out to do our Christmas shopping this year.”
