Four million euro has been generated by local business people in Mayo as a result of effective business networking. The Mayo Chapter of BNI meet locally in Castlebar every Friday morning in the TF Royal Hotel and is made up of 16 business people who work together to build the local economy.
The BNI Mayo Chapter group supports over 49 jobs locally with this set to grow in the coming months with new business wins among members.
A wide variety of local business people are represented in the BNI Mayo Chapter including a business consultant, printer, painter, solicitor, a builder and many more. The diversity of the businesses involved is what has helped with the chapter’s success.
Speaking of the group’s achievement Paula McNicholas, Chapter President said “Our members are no different to other business people - we are always looking to find new business opportunities but in a group like this it is like having an additional 15 sales people on the road looking for business for you and we all work together which is what it is all about. Our group is not just about getting new business in, we are also there to support each other in the challenges we face, and you cannot put a high enough value on such support.”
Also speaking of the success of the Mayo group, Mr. Paddy McLoughlin, Director Consultant for the chapter said “Each member has worked extremely hard to reach such a milestone and I hope they will continue to do so long into the future. BNI welcomes all business people to come to a meeting as a guest. If you would like to grow your business you can visit www.bni.ie to find out how.”
