The chair of Ramsey Town Commissioners says it's great to see more retail outlets opening in the town.
Andy Cowie was visiting some of the new businesses which have opened up or recently been refurbished to welcome them on behalf of the commission.
He says it's good to see the town flourishing during the busy festive period in a 'very challenging retail market'.
Mr Cowie also added this is backed up by high confidence from existing businesses in the area.
