Councillor McFalone said: “The local traders’ make a major contribution to community life and always aim to project a very positive message for Maghera. Throughout the day there was a variety of great discounts to be availed off.
“I want to commend our local traders’ association for organising the Trade Discount Day which was marketed as ‘RED SATURDAY’ as well as the much enjoyed Christmas Carnival.”

“As Maghera has a great mix of retailers, all of whom offer an extensive range of products and services, I am urging everyone in our community to ‘shop local’ in the run up to Christmas, supporting our independent traders who make a major contribution to our local economy, employment opportunities and community life.”
