Musgrave MarketPlace customer, Rory Stack, Head Chef at The Yacht Bar & Restaurant, Clontarf commented on the launch,
“As a long-time customer of Musgrave MarketPlace, I was excited to be part of the customer panel whose feedback helped to shape the site features to meet the needs of our business. During the pilot phase we were able to help to identify possible issues during development and ways to make things easier for customers. The new website is slick, easy to navigate and, as ever, contains everything that we could possibly need to run our business.”
