Housing Estates
Gael-Taca is very pleased to recommend suitable names in Irish for new housing estates. This important service for builders and developers has been widely welcomed as can be seen in many estates throughout the country. Gael-Taca has been to the forefront in this important development.
The response from the business community arose from the recognition of the language allied to an appreciation that a fresh approach brought its own reward.

Business Advertising
Business premises, banks, shop-fronts, supermarkets, restaurants and pubs sporting Irish language signage bring colour, freshness and a vitality that is remarked upon by all. We are very thankful to the business community for their co-operation in bringing Irish signage to the fore.
Other initiatives devised and encouraged by Gael-Taca include bus advertising and slogans in Irish on delivery vans.
Our policy of regular contact with the business community brought about a transformation in advertising practice. The use of Irish, allied to the increasing respect associated with the Irish Language in recent years, was presented as a plus in drawing attention to the product.
