About us

The ShopLK #LoveShoppingLetterkenny campaign was first launched in 2004. Our goal is to promote retailers, eateries, independent stores and entertainment venues across Letterkenny. The introduction of ShopLK vouchers in 2006 (now ShopLK gift cards) provided an excellent way for customers to present family and friends with a gift that promotes local shopping, and which supports local jobs and the local economy.

Here at the ShopLK office, our friendly sales team are on hand to help you find the right ShopLK outlets for your needs and answer any of your gift card queries. Our ShopLK gift cards make an excellent bonus gift for employees and have been received and cherished by customers across Donegal and beyond for over 18 years.
