IDA Ireland maintains statistics of site visits by potential investors on a quarterly basis. The latest data available covers the first three quarters of 2016 only, during which there were 489 site visits countrywide. From the first quarter of 2009 until the third quarter of 2016 there were a total of 3,130 IDA Ireland sponsored site visits by potential investors throughout the country. The attached table sets out, on a county-by-county basis, the number of IDA Ireland sponsored site visits for each year from 2009 to quarter 3 2016. It is expected that details on site visits for quarter 4 2016 will be available within the coming month.
