When did INfurness launch?

INfurness really began as an idea nearly 28 yrs ago, in the form of a media and news website called visitfurness.com. Over the years via several different notepads, it morphed into the INfurness Facebook page in2015 for sharing local business posts in order to increase their visibility and marketplace recognition.

After a suggestion from a local businessman, we began to construct the app and fill with simple complimentary listings in July 2019 and successfully launched INfurness, in the form of a mobile phone app, at The Kill One Club, Barrow on Monday 4.30 pm, 2 Sept 2019 and The Wellington Hotel in Dalton on Wednesday 4 Sept of the same year.

What is the purpose of INfurness?

In the light of economic challenges faced by local businesses and service providers, the local economy INfurness has suffered. Our mission INfurness is to make it easier for people to find local businesses and rather than their disposable income leaving the Furness economy, it stays locally and the investment is then recycled with the benefit of a stronger financial position, INfurness. This is a fantastic opportunity for everyone to support local everyday and create a better future for all, INfurness.

This new platform will increase accessibility for all meaning faster and more comprehensive positive results, INfurness
