Eight new profiles have been included in 2014, flagged as *NEW in the Table of Contents and within the profile heading itself. This year we’ve alo included some ‘Top Tips’ for producers that are interested in better servicing the market. They’re not listed in any particular order and they are not definitive, but if taken on board and actioned, they will assist in delivering new business. Please note that our 2014 Irish Foodservice Channel Report provides up to date information on the size of the foodservice market, along with an overview of the key trends and drivers taking place. Soft copies of the Channel Insights report are available via the Bord Bia website. For hard copies, simply email your contact details to [email protected] How to Use the Directory In an effort to help producers understand and target the channels most appropriate to their own business, the Directory has been segmented by Commercial and Institutional channels as outlined in our Foodservice Market Map. Profiles contained in this directory concentrate on the larger chain operators and do not include independent outlets. Any companies referenced by operators as ‘Distribution Providers’ are subsequently profiled in detail under the Foodservice Distributors section. While the Directory provides a strong representation of the sector, it does not claim to provide a complete listing of all industry players. Operators and distributors emphasised that they do not wish to be ‘cold called’ by producers that have not undertaken research into their foodservice offering and determined where opportunities may lie within their business. All producers should conduct considerable research (including site visits) in advance of approaching buyers listed in this Directory. 5 Methodology James Burke & Associates were appointed by Bord Bia to compile the eight new profiles in this directory. An overview of the total number of profiles included in the 2014 Directory is as follows: Commercial No. of profiles o Quick Service Restaurants 7 o Full Service Restaurants 7 o Coffee Shops 7 o Hotels 9 o Leisure/Events 8 o Travel 8 Institutional o Business and Industry 12 o Health 1 o Government 2 Distributors 44 TOTAL 105 In order to refresh profiles included in Bord Bia’s 2013 Irish Foodservice Market Directory, all operators and distributors were emailed a copy of their existing profile and asked to amend any information that required updating, or alternatively to confirm that the existing information could be used for our 2014 Directory. While the profiles were signed off as being accurate at the time of going to print, producers should conduct their own research before approaching any distributor or operator as future changes may occur. This Directory aims to provide a strong reference tool for producers either seeking to enter the foodservice sector, or for those already established who wish to maintain and build sales. 6 TOP 10 PRODUCER TIPS FOR BUILDING A SUCCESSFUL FOODSERVICE BUSINESS 1. Review each of the foodservice channels and identify products within your business with potential to fit one or more channels. Have a structured approach to dealing with the foodservice sector and create prioritised prospect lists to help focus on the market channels most appropriate to your business. Ensure that you conduct research in advance of approaching buyers – in addition to reviewing their profile and online presence, ensure that you have visited at least one site and observed the customer profile and existing food and beverage offering. 2. Develop a partnership model. Work hand in hand with your distributors to get closer to the end customer - it will help provide producers with a deeper understanding of the challenges facing foodservice operators and in turn identify existing or new products that can potentially address these challenges. Educate your distributor’s team and work closely with them to monitor feedback, ensure that stock is moving and drive sales. 3. Remember the importance of service in foodservice. Ensure paperwork is provided as requested, orders are fulfilled as specified every time and product quality is consistent. Labelling and product specifications must comply with all FSAI and EU legislation. Ensure the packaging is correct and ‘fit for purpose’. Speaking to relevant industry contacts will provide insights regarding portion control etc. and help producers design and deliver appropriate packaging. 4. Develop a strong promotional calendar in consultation with your distribution partner (and end operator, if appropriate). Think about building brand awareness, attending trade shows, maximising PR opportunities, training distributor sales teams, interacting with relevant Trade Associations, having a social media presence and organising product sampling. Build a foodservice ‘marketing toolkit’ to support your product range – add a foodservice tab to your website, develop foodservice specific promotional leaflets etc. 7 TOP 10 PRODUCER TIPS FOR BUILDING A SUCCESSFUL FOODSERVICE BUSINESS 5. Understanding international foodservice trends will help producers anticipate the needs of tomorrow and feed into a cycle of product innovation. Ensure that innovation is taking place at all levels and be proactive in bringing new products and concepts to the market. Also ensure that you are well informed with what’s happening on the domestic market – sign up to Bord Bia’s monthly Foodservice Newsletters and investigate other trade information alerts and/or publications. 6. Develop Key Account Management skills within your business to manage important foodservice accounts (both distributors and operators). Understand the needs of your key customers and manage these accordingly. If it’s not possible to assign responsibility for the development of your foodservice business internally, then consider employing external expertise. 7. Think about how your product proposition can add value all along the supply chain. What’s in it for each player? Think about providing a “total solution” that can ultimately help deliver what the end consumer is looking for. 8. Make time for foodservice in your business and ensure that you have a strategy in place. Producers need to ensure that clearly defined objectives exist within the business in order to grow foodservice sales, with provision for necessary resources to service this sector. Harness any existing foodservice product category research and/or consumer insights to guide your strategy – Bord Bia’s Information Department is a useful resource to this end. 9. Relationships are key to developing sales. Ensure you maintain ongoing communication with your customers. Be proactive and realise the importance of telling the provenance story. Remember that the sales process cannot be passive. 10. Continued price pressure means that new ways to cut costs at manufacturing level need to be identified. As a producer, ensure that your company has embraced lean manufacturing principles.

Cork. ii AUTHORS NOTE & ACKNOWLEDGEMENT When the Cork Constitution Club celebrated the centenary of its foundation I had the privilege of writing the history. Now I have been entrusted with updating that chronicle. While obviously the emphasis will be on the events of the last twenty-five years - the most momentous period in the history of rugby union - as a tribute to the founding fathers, the first chapter of the original history will yet again appear. While it would not be practical to include a detailed history of the first 100 years chapter two is a brief resume of the achievements of the first fifty years and likewise chapter three embraces the significant events of the second fifty years in the illustrious history of one of Ireland’s great sporting institutions. There follows the detailed history and achievements, and they were considerable, of the last twenty five years. I owe a considerable debt of gratitude to many people for their help during the compilation of this book. In that regard I would particularly like to thank Noel Walsh, the man with whom I liaised during the writing of the book.

    Supervalu: How a Brave Local Brand Defied the Forces of Globalisation

    SuperValu: How a brave local brand defied the forces of globalisation DDFH&B COMPANY PROFILE AGENCY The DDFH&B Group consists of DDFH&B Advertising, Goosebump, The Reputations Agency, RMG and Mindshare Media – making it one of the largest Irish companies in creative advertising, media buying and customer relationship/digital marketing. Together, they provide channel-neutral, integrated marketing communications campaigns that deliver real, measurable results. They achieve this level of integration by working in a number of small, multi-disciplined teams, calling it ‘fun sizing’. They continue to be one of the most successful agencies in Ireland, working with clients such as Kerry Foods, SuperValu, The National Lottery, eir, Littlewoods, Lucozade and Molson Coors. CLIENT AWARD LONG TERM EFFECTIVENESS Sponsored by GOLD 1 SuperValu: How a brave local brand defied the forces of globalisation DDFH&B INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND This is a story about long term effectiveness. It is a story about how a brave local retailer with daring ambition wrestled back leadership from Tesco and defied the forces of globalisation. SuperValu was founded in 1979 with a base of just 16 stores, mainly in Munster. While they had grown to 182 stores by 2004, and acquired Superquinn (another Irish retailer) in 2011, they were a retailer with two speeds, an urban speed and a rural speed. The urban speed was still reeling from the Superquinn takeover, when stores were rebranded to SuperValu in 2014. Superquinn had a more premium brand perception, much closer to the Waitrose proposition in the UK. Consumers were in a state of chassis as they felt they were paying convenience store prices in large supermarkets and were unfamiliar with the brand and mistrustful of its quality.

    Merger Control Update 2018 Merger Control Update Contact Us Notifications rise by 36% in 2018 The end of 2018 brings to a close one of the busiest four year periods in the history of Irish merger control. This is largely due to significant economic growth and the lower notification thresholds which applied since 2014. The number of mergers notified from 2015-2018 is, in the history of the Competition Act 2002 as amended, second only to the notifications from 2004- 2007. The 98 mergers notified in 2018 was also an increase of 36% on 2017. Joanne Finn This high level of notifications is unlikely to continue in 2019. The increase in the notification Partner, Head of EU, thresholds from €3 million to €10 million turnover in the ROI will reduce number of notified Competition & Regulated mergers by approximately 40%, as we reported here. The reduction will relate to those mergers Markets where annual turnover in the State is between €3 and €10 million.

While none of these have been prohibited, there has also been an increase in the number of remedies, particularly behavioural remedies, being adopted.
