A Commitment to Supporting Local Businesses
Danielle Fitzsimons, Head of Marketing at MMCU, emphasised the importance of fostering strong ties within the local business community. “There has always been a strong desire within the credit union community to support local businesses,” she said. “This Partnership Programme is one we hope to see running long-term for the mutual benefit of the credit union, its members, and the businesses serving our common bond. By collaborating with trusted local names like Flowers by Yvonne, House of Gowns, and Stephanie's Touch Beauty Salon, we’re not just supporting businesses—we’re enriching our members’ experiences.”
While MMCU currently has an exclusive offer with AXA on home and car insurance for members, this is the first time the credit union has extended such an initiative to the wider business community.
“In the past, limited resources and time meant we couldn’t explore partnerships like this,” Danielle continued. “But now, with this pilot programme, we hope to be able to offer a range of permanent rotating benefits for our members. We also invite and encourage other local businesses to join the programme, offering their own unique promotions and benefiting from reciprocal support and promotion.”
The Benefits of Partnering with MMCU
Businesses that collaborate with MMCU can align themselves with a brand that for a record-breaking 10th consecutive year, has topped the league table for best customer experience in Ireland on the 2024 Customer Experience Insight (CXi) Report and has also topped the table in the Ireland RepTrak® Sustainability Index 2024. Being part of Mountmellick Credit Union’s Partner Programme not only provides valuable exposure to the credit union’s loyal membership but also strengthens the local economy through cooperative support.
Get Involved
Danielle concludes “This is an exciting time for Mountmellick Credit Union and our members across Mountmellick, Rathangan and Clonaslee. We’re looking forward to growing this initiative and welcoming more businesses on board to create something truly beneficial for everyone involved.”
