The availability of an adequate supply of marketable land, office and industrial or technology buildings in advance of demand is a key element in IDA Ireland’s ability to compete for mobile foreign direct investment.
The availability of property solutions eliminates the lead times normally associated with acquiring property, enables clients to plan their property needs with a greater degree of certainty and allows for the commencement of projects at an earlier date. It also reduces many of the difficulties associated with land acquisition, planning and construction and helps to encourage investors to locate in regional areas.
The table below outlines the location of IDA Ireland sites in Galway city and County that are currently available. As a number of the sites in question form part of larger business parks, information relating to the length of time the sites have been available along with details on the date and price of purchase are not readily accessible for all the sites listed. This information will take some time to collate but can be provided at a later date to the Deputy, if needed.
