BIG congratulations to the creative team at Mucros Weavers, Killarney, which has won a coveted industry accolade.

Mucros Weavers was chosen Supplier of the Year for Textiles, Apparel & Accessories by the North American Celtic Trade Association, and co-sponsor Enterprise Ireland at its annual Supplier of the Year awards ceremony held last Sunday at the RDS, Dublin.

The awards were held at Showcase Ireland International trade fair, which promotes indigenous Irish craft, gift, and textile. These awards acknowledge and applaud outstanding customer service, and product quality.

This is the sixth time Mucros Weavers has received this prestigious award. “We are delighted to be chosen by NACTA, as one of the best suppliers in 2016,” said John Cahill, of Mucros Weavers.

“We are known for our quick turnaround which has helped to grow our business. We regularly talk to our customers to find out what they value, how their needs are changing, and how we can serve them better, and having a short lead time is extremely important to them. We have a great team working together, and have been supplying customers for over 20 years. We supply them with scarves, headwear, capes and handbags, and offer them strong promotional in-store support also.”

For over 30 years, inspired by its location, Mucros weavers have designed and produced high quality woven accessories in Muckross House, Killarney National Park. Since their humble beginnings, they have grown to supply over 150 stores worldwide, in countries such as the USA, Canada, France, Germany, and Japan, which has resulted in them becoming a brand that business owners can trust. Mucros Weavers offer contemporary and traditional styles, and supply a large range of scarves, stoles, capes, and rugs, made from premium yarns such as wool, mohair and alpaca.

The annual Killarney Regatta Dance took place on September 25 as rowers, families and supporters came together to celebrate their successful year.

The racing was cancelled in September due to bad weather.

The Killarney Regatta is one of Ireland’s oldest rowing events, having first begun in 1788.

The dance took place at the Killarney Oaks Hotel where there was a lot of excitement and fun. Six rowing clubs, Fossa, Workman’s, St Brendan’s, Commercials, Flesk Valley, and Muckross, came together to celebrate the community and its shared history.

Amelia Counihan was crowned as the Regatta Queen.

The Queen represents the spirit pride and grace of the rowing community and has been a tradition in the club for generations.

Workman’s Rowing Club congratulated Amelia and described her as a woman who embodies everything that their tradition stands for.

The club said: “Queen is more than a title — it is a celebration of history, community, and the spirit of Killarney rowing.”
