Irish Country Meats is one of Europe’s leading lamb processors, combining craftsmanship, innovation and quality in every cut.
We’re proud to be globally recognised for innovation in the lamb category, giving our customers a true competitive edge.
Through our partnerships with farmers and producer groups we’re helping to protect the environment and secure the future of Irish farming.
We’re helping to shape the next generation of Irish sheep farmers through the Flocks of the Future initiative. This competition supports and inspires young farmers aged 16 to 25 years old, encouraging new talent and ideas to strengthen the long term sustainability of the sheep sector.
Successful applicants receive a mini flock consisting of one five-star ram and five breeding hoggets, worth a value of over €2,500. Participants will also receive tailored mentoring and support from Irish Country Meats, Bord Bia, Teagasc and Sheep Ireland.
