Last Thursday night, the Dublin Royal Convention Centre was buzzing with energy as businesses from across the country gathered for the Guaranteed Irish Business Awards, proudly sponsored by PTSB and hosted by the ever‑charismatic Marty Whelan. It was a fantastic celebration of Irish enterprise, innovation, and community impact and Duggans was delighted to be part of it once again!

Representing us on the night were Caoimhe and Shauna, who did a wonderful job flying the flag for our team. We were honoured to be shortlisted in the Pharmaceutical and Healthcare category, a space we know well and one in which we were proud winners last year. While we didn’t take home the award this time, being recognised among such strong and inspiring companies is an achievement in itself.

The Pharmaceutical and Healthcare category highlights businesses making a meaningful difference in their sector while demonstrating a strong commitment to quality, sustainability, and local communities. These values are deeply embedded in everything we do at Duggans, from the way we support our partners to the standards we uphold in our products and services. Being shortlisted reaffirms that our efforts continue to resonate within the industry and beyond.

The evening was not only a celebration of business excellence but also a reminder of the strength and resilience of Irish companies working to create positive change. We are incredibly proud of our team, grateful for the recognition, and motivated to keep pushing boundaries in the year ahead.

A huge congratulations to all the finalists and winners – and a special thank you to Guaranteed Irish for hosting such an inspiring event. We’re already looking forward to next year’s awards.
