𝐀𝐭 𝐀𝐫𝐝𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐞, 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 - 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲. We don’t have one Irish apple supplier, we have three. We’re proud to work directly with:  𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐲 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐎𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝 (Waterford) 24km  𝐊𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 (Kilkenny) 31km  𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐅𝐚𝐫𝐦 (Tipperary) 61km Each represents generations of knowledge and care, producing apples that travel fewer miles, taste better, and stay true to Ireland’s soil and seasons. Supporting Irish growers isn’t a marketing message - it’s our foundation. For decades, we’ve championed local producers because real Irish food deserves to be at the centre of our food system. Yet despite their quality, Irish apples still struggle to secure shelf space in mainstream retail and foodservice. That needs to change.
