Manufacturing Issues
As a result of these issues the manufacturing sector was gradually eroded with a significant loss of jobs and an exodus of many of the large scale long established manufacturing businesses leaving or scaling back operations in Ireland (Dell, Fruit of the Loom and a number of Pharmaceutical companies being high profile examples). With a renewed focus on exports the manufacturing sector is coming back into the spotlight and market opportunities are again becoming attractive. Competitive advances in areas of taxation, pro-business environment, a highly skilled workforce and an improvement in cost competitiveness have all contributed to recent growth in the industry.
