E 198 That Great Business Show
We may have confused Kilgarvan and Glencar in County Kerry, but we certainly didn't mess up a great business story - that of Glencar - a leading construction company, growing to become one of the UK’s most successful privately-owned contractors having been founded only in 2016 (revenues of over half a billion Pounds Sterling). The twist in the tail is that Glencar, founded by an Irish family in Britain, is bringing it all back home, to Kerry as their base for their Irish expansion. Rory McGillycuddy, country director Ireland, joins us to tell us of their worldwide ambition.
His 'hire in a heartbeat'? NFL legend, Tom Brady
Warburton Technology is an Irish SME, engaged in the development and licencing of injectable trace mineral formulations, in the large animal veterinary arena, under the Multimin trademark. They're based at the RDI Hub in Killorglin, Co. Kerry, where they formulate their products and ship them to the world. Eithne O'Leary, MD at Warburton, is the brains behind the business.
Her 'hire in a heartbeat'? Dr. Tony Holohan (she debated against him while at school).
