Supporting Our Communities

Our business makes a difference in the communities in which we operate. Our vision as a company is to Grow together to enrich all the communities we serve. We truly feel a part of our communities as they are where our facilities, our farmers and our people all call home. We strive to be good neighbours by evolving in harmony with our environment, providing strong employment opportunities and supporting charities and community groups that resonate with our culture and value system.

As a large employer, with 6,000 family farm suppliers, we take our responsibility of creating vibrant communities and supporting our economy very seriously. Throughout our business, we encourage fundraising and sporting activities to thrive. As a company with high-quality nutritious ingredients at its core, we take pride in supporting and fueling our sporting stars through our support of GAA at senior and grassroots levels. Our long tradition of supporting nominated charities and fundraising events continues to this day. We take a supportive role in many of our food, arts festivals and country shows which are key social outlets for our communities.

 

Community Partnerships

Throughout our communities, we work with charitable organisations, take leading roles in supporting fundraisers and maintain strong relationships with our partners.

We are constantly evaluating how we can play a meaningful role in aiding organisations whose values and cultures mirror our own. Our people, our facilities, our retail branches and our suppliers all play their part in creating innovative initiatives that raise vital funds.  

 

 

Community Events

Through our branch network, we sponsor many events, big and small, that are important to those communities; we also support we sponsor many agricultural shows, food fairs and other events throughout the country, which are a mainstay of many rural communities.


Tirlán sponsorships also include the Kilkenny Arts Festival and food festivals such as Savour Kilkenny and the Waterford Festival of Food. We provide consumers with a flavour of the rich produce that Ireland has to offer.

Through GAIN Pet Nutrition, we deliver much-needed donations of our Kindness nutrition feed to dog shelters and charities around the country. GAIN Equine Nutrition is a key supporter and sponsor of the Irish Horse Welfare Trust.
