JJ Kavanagh are delighted to announce that Laura Kavanagh has won ๐'The Rising Star Award' ๐ at this years Energia Family Business Awards. The past 18 months have been difficult for all businesses. During that time, Laura had to work on devising a Covid strategy for reopening. The first part of this strategy was the digitalisation of the company. She transformed the organisation with the introduction of a digital ticketing system to provide onboard contactless payments and online pre booking for the first time in the organisations 102-year history. This revolutionized the company, improving access for all and ensuring the safety and well-being of customers and staff when travelling with JJ Kavanagh and Sons. As a result, digital bookings make up 80% of all tickets purchased to date. When the company reopened on the 1st of September 2020 it was positioned for the changes that COVID-19 brought to the communities it served and it was able to play its role in bringing children to school/college and essential workers to work in the safest way possible.
People are happy to see JJ Kavanagh & Sons because weโre either the first step on a new journey or their last leg home! Weโre always delighted to welcome passengers as well as introduce new visitors to the county. With over 28 bus services every 24 hours to Carlow from Dublin City/ Dublin Airport we make travelling easier ๐ We are excited for more travel ahead ๐
In 1984, JJ Kavanagh & Sons set up the first commuter service to operate Institute of Technology Carlow ๐ ๐ We now operate 56 services daily to and from Carlow IT. Weโre proud of the students and the work theyโre putting in and we're happy to be there for them on their journeys. We look forward seeing all the students again in September!
For over 100 years, people have used our services for their shopping, going to work/college, going to matches and they come to rely on us to get where they want to be. We see the importance of local bus routes for people in the community ๐ซ๐ฌ We were delighted to work with Carlow Tourism to highlight the local communities that we serve daily such as the Royal Oak, Bagenalstown, Leighlinbridge and Carlow Town. *This video was made pre covid before masks had to be worn ๐ท
