Love Irish Food

Love Irish Food is an association of food & drink brands,
produced in Ireland with locally sourced and grown
ingredients. This includes around 100 small, medium &
large food enterprises and over 15,000 direct/indirect
member employees. Love Irish Food is a key provenance
Love Irish Food
identifier with 88% consumer awareness.

The Love Irish Food ‘Meet the Makers’ Marquee is a
foodie’s haven with new products launched and
household names taking part each year, all of which have
been produced in the Republic of Ireland. More than
30,000 Bloom visitors at last year’s Love Irish Food
marquee, savoured, sipped and sampled their way
through the ‘Meet the Makers’ marquee.

Commenting, Kieran Rumley, Executive Director, Love
Irish Food said: “With the Irish food industry facing the
challenge and the uncertainty from the current pandemic
and an imminent Brexit, it is vital that Irish shoppers have
the opportunity to identify locally produced food brands
easily, with the Love Irish Food logo and to understand
their importance and contribution to local communities
throughout Ireland. Love Irish Food members are fully
committed to the continuity of supply of food products
to retailers throughout the country.”
