ESMA
Network
An FMCG network trading since 1976, with no way to prove its own worth. We built ESMA one custom platform, public site, member dashboard and native app, where every company and connection is finally searchable.
Web development and website design, kept as the proven high-intent channel. Fast, accessible sites and stores that rank, sell and grow into whatever you need next.
The problem
Most sites are rented themes: slow, hard to extend and impossible to truly own. The moment the business grows and needs a booking tool, a member area, a store or an integration, the template becomes the ceiling. You end up rebuilding, or bolting on tools that don’t talk to each other.
What we build
Same senior team, same Consult, Design, Build spine, pointed at the web. Not a theme with your logo on it.
How we work
We are based at The Digital Hub in Dublin 8 and work with companies in Cork, Galway, Limerick and across Ireland. Most projects run remotely, with a handful of sessions in person.
01
We find where the work pays back: scoped, costed and honest about trade-offs.
02
The system and the experience, around how your business really works. You see it before it’s built.
03
Engineered and shipped by the same senior people. Working software in production, and you own it.

FAQs
What people ask us before a project like this starts.
Most marketing sites we build start from €10,000. Ecommerce, portals and platforms cost more, because there is more to design, build and test. You get a scoped, costed plan before anything is built, so the price and the timeline are agreed at the start rather than discovered halfway through.
Whatever fits the job. WordPress for content-led sites your team edits daily, Shopify or a headless store where selling is the whole point, and a custom build when the workflow is the product. We recommend the platform only once we understand how you sell and who has to keep the site running.
Yes, and the migration is planned rather than improvised. Products, customers, orders and content are mapped before anything moves, old URLs are redirected one by one so rankings survive, and we test checkout and forms on a staging copy before the switch. You see the plan before we start.
Not the build itself. The Local Enterprise Office is explicit that the Grow Digital Voucher does not support bespoke website development. It covers off-the-shelf software subscriptions, IT configuration and training, so where a project includes eligible elements we scope those separately, and we tell you plainly when nothing qualifies.
We build for Core Web Vitals, clean structured data and local search from day one, the foundations rankings are built on.
Both. The same senior team designs and engineers it. No hand-off, no lost detail between the mockup and the live site.
Yes. We build so the site can become a front door to a real workflow (members, bookings, accounts) without starting over.
Funding
The Local Enterprise Office Grow Digital Voucher pays 50% of eligible digital adoption costs, up to €5,000: off-the-shelf software subscriptions, their configuration and training. It does not cover bespoke website development or custom software, and you need a completed Digital for Business project first. We scope which parts of your project qualify before you spend a euro.
