Local councillor Jennifer Green has urged Dundalk companies and tradespersons to tender for council and government contracts.
The Sinn Féin representative said many people did not know the process that was required but insisted it was a relatively easy process.
She said: “I have been approached by tradespeople who are simply unaware of just how to tender for a council or a local government contract. If there is a job to be done in Dundalk or indeed any town in Louth, I would encourage local businesses to tender for it and the process itself is fairly straightforward.
“The steps online are fairly easy to follow and you can find them on the council’s website www.louthcoco.ie or you can go straight to www.etenders.gov.ie
“I would urge you if you are a local business or tradesperson who wishes to tender for a contract, please go to either website and register.”
