The Northern Ireland Region of Shopping Centres (NIRSC) was founded in 1989 to promote the shopping centre industry as an integral part of the community in Northern Ireland. It continues to function today.[1]
The group is also responsible for offering contacts and communications between the two dozen shopping centres that operate in the province. Its board and membership are made up of many managers and operators of Ulster's largest shopping centres.
The group's website also operates as an information hub for activities across Northern Ireland as well as offering several interactive features and listings of all shopping complexes in the province.
