Retailers in Cork are planning a series of workshops with teenagers to find out how they can improve the retail offering to a vast untapped teenage market. “The students will be given an opportunity to engage directly with the CBA’s retail committee in a dual-learning setting. The CBA linked up with the city council and St Angela’s College last year. The students examined the products available in Cork, how the youth market consume these products, how they rate the overall retail experience. Of the 24 retailers surveyed, only half offered online purchasing, and many offered discounts to third level students only.
