Newry Chamber of Commerce and Trade had it's first Meet and Greet event of 2013 yesterday afternoon in the Canal Court Hotel.
A large attendance from a diverse range of professions took the opportunity to network and find out more information about the Chamber and events that are planned for the year ahead in a very informal atmosphere.
Colleen Dowdall, Acting Chamber Chief Executive welcomed those in attendance and visitors discovered more about the service offered by the Chamber.
Local businesses attending the event learned of the benefits of being part of such a powerful and influencing network.
2013 will see the chamber host a number of influential networking events and business support initiatives for the members and wider business community. The Chamber will kick start the business seminars with the ‘Handling Discipline & Grievance’ seminar taking place on the 31st January which will be delivered by Rolanda Markey from the Labour Relations Agency.

The event was highly attended and it was good to see business people from all sectors and was a good opportunity to showcase the Newry Chambers services. Finally I would like to thank our event sponsor Canal Court Hotel’
