Our History
Family First
Originally established in Portlaoise by the Odlum family in 1845, Odlums are proud to be part of Irish baking occasions for generations.
Biscuits Brothers
William & Robert Jacob set up business in Waterford, where they created the unique and sometimes quirky recipes that we know and love today.
Roasting Roberts
Robert Roberts today is the legacy of two great Irish families, and is proud to be Ireland’s favourite fresh coffee brand with their tea and coffee facilities standing proudly in Tallaght.
Crafting Chef
Nothing tastes like Chef and we’re proud to say it’s been bringing food to life in Ireland for nearly 100 years. Who’s coming to the centenary party?
Brilliant Beans
The secret has been safely stored down in the sauce vault since 1935. We’re not sure who has the key, but we think it could be Barney… or is it Beany?
Busy Bees
Rowse have been keeping bee farmers in buzzness for over 70 years. Proud of our brilliant blends, we continue to leave them exactly as nature intended.
Terrific Toppings
Jam and Marmalade packed full of goodness in its North Dublin home, Fruitfield has been a leading toast topper in Ireland for over 60 years.
Baker's Best
While baking with the best involves Odlums, it wouldn’t really be the same without Shamrock. A match made in bakers heaven since 1958.
Nutritious Nibbles
Irish families have been turning to Ken Kinsella and Liz Kelly’s Kelkin for their delicious and nutritious foods for over 40 years because it feels good!
Investing in Irish
Valeo Foods are proud to continue to invest in production in Ireland with our facilities in Portlaoise and Cabra seeing major overhauls and upgrades in recent years.Our Vision
With such a rich history in providing the perfect bite or beverage for homes across the country, we pride ourselves on being the home of Irish food. Our products are chosen by millions of people every day and our vision is to grow to be part of every eating occasion in Ireland.
