Any international business would be proud to work out of there but Ida only give funding when it’s near Dublin , there kept away from Shannon ! But the political pressure does it best to keep everything in Dublin !

Shannon is a regional airport in a town of 10000 with a city of 100000 and another town of 25000 nearby that has around 1.8m passengers annually. There's a reason companies want to locate in Dublin. Saying that, 12000 jobs have been created in the Limerick/Shannon region in the last number of years, so to say that the IDA is sending everything to Dublin for political reasons, is quite simply rubbish.
