The 2026 Love Local issue of Neighbourhood Retailer is live online!

The March issue of Neighbourhood Retailer is now available to read online!

Our traditional Love Local focus issue, we celebrate and champion the producers and manufacturers across the province who pride themselves on providing for and promoting the world-class produce created here.

Northern Ireland is a hot bed of producers and manufacturers and while business pressures continue to mount, we can rightly boast an exceptionally high quality of the food and drink produced in this region.

Meanwhile, our cover story looks at the scale of the challenges facing the high streets across Northern Ireland.

In this extensive feature, NR spoke to business owners and trade organisations to discuss what help is really needed to revitalise our town centres and urban hubs.

Elsewhere, the entries to the 2026 Neighbourhood Retailer Awards have officially opened, with many entries already coming in – find out more about this year’s categories and full entry details inside this issue.

As well as all the latest news and exciting NPD within the Ice Cream sector, don’t forget to check out a brand-new feature focusing on the work carried out by dedicated store managers across Northern Ireland.
