Shirley Delahunt, Marketing Manager at Athlone Towncentre says:
"2023 was hugely positive year for Athlone Towncentre as we saw a substantial increase in the number of people coming through our doors over the course of the year.
We’re investing heavily in providing a best-in-class retail experience for our customers, and building our base of brands to bring unique shopping experiences to the people of Athlone, Westmeath and surrounding Midland counties.
In 2024, our target is to surpass the record 2019 levels of visitors to the centre, as we continue to invest to enhance our centre facilities for shoppers, and further progress our ambitious sustainability upgrade project."
