Divilly Brothers
Divilly Brothers, an Irish family business rooted in genuine family values, proudly displays their name on their packaging, embodying their personal responsibility and unwavering commitment to upholding these values. This authenticity sets them apart from the competition.
With a heritage that spans nine decades in Galway, the Divilly brand carries a rich legacy. In 2022, Peter and Shane Divilly took over the family business from their father, Brian, who had successfully guided it for fifty years, following in the footsteps of their grandfather. Now in its third generation, the company operates from a purpose-built Department of Agriculture approved plant on the outskirts of Galway City, located in the Gaeltacht.
Employing over sixty people, Divilly Brothers reflects their roots and dedication to the local community through the Irish language featured on their packaging. Their commitment to long-term relationships is shown by the many employees who have been with the company for decades, considered part of the extended family. Going the extra mile for colleagues and suppliers is a testament to the brothers’ values.
During their early years, Shane and Peter sharpened their skills in slow cooking, blending cures, steaming, crumbing, and creating a range of delectable products, such as sausages, puddings, turkey slices, ham, and bacon. Armed with their comprehensive understanding of the trade, they now confidently steer the company towards new horizons.
