Swift Fine Foods is located at Lough Egish Food Park, Castleblaney, in the resource-rich county of Monaghan.
The company began its journey in 2001, finding early success within the foodservice sector. Throughout its first 10 years, it developed and created convenient food solutions, including soups, vegetable mixes and accompaniments, Italian pasta dishes, Indian dishes and traditional carvery dinner components.
Its food chain was chilled and frozen and provided the hospitality and retail sectors, with the luxury of offering a wide selection of delicious lunch and dinner meals, including vegan and vegetarian, with minimal preparation requirements.
As Swift Fine Foods entered its second decade as a major food producer, its business was 80% foodservice and 20% retail, managed from start to finish by a small team of 20 employees.
Its team has now grown to almost 150 and its produce is being exported far beyond the shores of Lough Egish to all corners of Ireland and the UK, with preparations underway for ventures into mainland Europe.
