Why relocate to Wexford?
Located in Ireland’s “Sunny South-East”, Wexford is known as the corner-stone of Ireland’s Ancient East. The County has a distinctive settlement pattern with five major centres of population – Wexford Town, Enniscorthy, New Ross, Gorey, and Bunclody.
As mentioned in our 2018 South-East Relocation Survey, many well-known international companies have chosen Wexford as their base and find it as an excellent place for their businesses to operate, prosper and grow. Among IDA client companies, Wexford has become one of the fastest growing regions in Ireland, while taking advantage of its proximity to Dublin, Cork and the rest of the south. Our survey found that 53% have progressed to more senior roles since making the move to the city, while 76% report having more disposable income.
The city is also boosted by access to third-level educational institutions such as Waterford Institute of Technology, as well as nearby institutions in Cork and Carlow. Meanwhile, the M11 motorway connects Wexford to Dublin in under 2 hours.
