Know a Great Local Business? Help Us Discover Ireland’s Christmas Gems

Christmas is just around the corner, and here at Stir the Jam, we want to shine a spotlight on the brilliant small and local businesses that help make the festive season special.

From independent gift shops and Irish makers to local cafés, food producers, family-run businesses and unique Christmas experiences, there are so many fantastic businesses worth discovering. We’d love your help finding them.
Help us support local this Christmas
Do you know a small business with brilliant gift ideas, festive treats, handmade products, special Christmas offerings or a unique experience? Maybe it’s a hidden gem in your town or a brand more people should just know about. We want to hear about it.
Own a small business? Put yourself forward
Email danny@stirthejam.com with the subject line ‘Christmas Business Feature’. Please include the following details so we can get to know your business:
Your business name and location
A short description of what you do
Any Christmas products, gift ideas, offers or experiences you’d like us to highlight
A link to your website or social media pages
A few good-quality photographs, if available, that you have permission for us to use
Have a recommendation?
You don’t have to own a business to get involved. If there’s a local shop, independent maker, food business or Christmas experience you think deserves a shout-out, tell us about it on Instagram by tagging the business in our Christmas call-out post. Business owners can also email us directly.
Let’s spread some Christmas cheer
We’ll review submissions and select businesses to feature across Stir the Jam. Submitting your details is free, but sending information does not guarantee publication. We may get in touch if we need anything else.
