In March 2007, the District Council comissioned Public and Corporate Economic Consultants (PACEC) to carry out a study of the economic conditions in Ashbourne and its rural hinterland.

PACEC have consulted extensively with local businesses and key stakeholders.  The resulting Ashbourne Economic Study identifies a number of regeneration priorities and recommends an Action Plan to guide future initiatives in the town and its surrounding area.
