Establishing the Economic Rationale for the Strategic Location of a Regional Logistics Park
Establishing the Economic Rationale for the Strategic Location of a Regional Logistics Park prepared by: Future Analytics Consulting 23 Fitzwilliam Square, Dublin 2 Establishing the Economic Rationale for the Strategic Location of a Regional Logistics Park 1 Introduction and Approach This report is intended to provide the economic context to support the strategic location of the proposed Regional Logistics Park within proximity to Carlow urban centre. The following will provide an economic profile of County Carlow and seek to highlight the economic benefits such a development will bring to Carlow and the wider regional context. The economic case for this development is predicated by a number of aspects, but specifically seeks to address a key theme that permeates through a number of government economic policy documents, namely fostering economic growth and competiveness. This is a critical concern for areas like Carlow and the South East Region, particularly in a time of scarce resources, where it is vital that development investment is targeted in the right areas. This report concludes that the subject lands are positively positioned to harness the identifiable potential for a logistics park, and function as a vital conduit for employment- led growth in County Carlow, the South East and the wider national economy. This report is informed by a profile of the economic performance of Carlow and the South East economic catchment following the collation and analysis of 2006 and 2011 Census datasets on relevant themes such as labour force and industry sector activity. This process adopts a SCOT (Strengths, Constraints, Opportunities and Threats) Analysis of County Carlow as detailed below. -
