Croía Ireland, a new online trading platform for Irish companies, is set to launch next week.
The website aims to provide a one-stop-shop for buying Irish brands and Irish-made products online.
It hopes to become the heart of Irish businesses, with Croía meaning 'heart’ in the Irish language.
To date, Croía has signed up over 100 Irish suppliers from small businesses to larger well-known brands.
It has curated a select range of products including gifts and hampers, jewellery, beauty, food and drink, Irish designer clothing, artwork, and cards.
Ahead of the busy Christmas season, the company said it is offering free membership to suppliers for its services for November and December.
The company was founded by young entrepreneur Ciara Hennebry during the lockdown.
Ms Hennebry said she saw a gap in the market to set up an online platform to support the growth of Irish brands and products.
"Shopping locally and supporting Irish talent has always been a huge passion of mine and so the Croía journey began in 2020 as I saw this as the perfect opportunity to give back to Irish businesses and provide to them not just a selling platform, but an empowering and encouraging community to become a part of," she said.
