Jack Kiernan featured on Ireland AM

A well known Navan business was featured on Ireland AMs 'Backing Business' campaign this morning.

The show featured Navan-based Jack Kiernan's shoe and sportswear shop - a family-run business that has been serving the local community for 53 years.

The store which specialises in all things GAA has worked hard to keep the business going throughout lockdown by providing a click and collect service.

Louise Kiernan Gaughran, manager of Jack Kiernan’s, said “We are very proud and grateful to be part of Backing Business. It gives us the chance to connect with new customers. As an independent store you can go unnoticed, so this gives us a new opportunity to grow.”

Since launching in May, #BackingBusiness has featured hundreds of businesses across Virgin Media TV and social media platforms.

"Many Irish businesses are working together to support Ireland’s plan for Living with Covid-19. The business team in Virgin Media want to continue to help each business to get back on their feet through our weekly promotion on Ireland AM. Simply contact backingbusiness@virginmedia.ie and we’ll do the rest," said a spokesperson.
