The Irish Food Trade Connect Forum

The Irish Food Trade Connect Forum, launched on March 20th, 2024, marked a pivotal moment for the Irish food and drink industry. Held at the Killashee Hotel in Co. Kildare, the inaugural event brought together industry professionals to celebrate the achievements of Irish businesses making an impact both at home and abroad.

This prestigious forum featured presentations from leading Irish food and drink companies, showcasing their success stories and innovative practices that distinguish Irish products in the global market. Key discussions covered global trade challenges, strategies for overcoming barriers, innovations in sustainability and the impact of regulatory changes on international trade.

Founded by Margaret Dineen, CEO of Blue Sky Food Consulting, the forum was created to foster collaboration and strengthen connections within the Irish food industry. With over 20 years of experience in international supply chain operations, Margaret has worked extensively in sourcing, logistics, distribution and sales. She is also an advocate for corporate sustainability and the growing importance of regulatory reporting. Margaret’s vision for the forum is to unite Irish food businesses and support their growth on the global stage.
