MCP Group (formerly Mid Cork Pallets & Packaging) is a family owned and run business which has been in operation for over 47 years, serving both the North and South of Ireland from its two strategically located facilities in Clondrohid, Co. Cork and Dunboyne, Co. Meath

. From humble beginnings and a source of big employment in both localities, MCP Group has grown to become Ireland’s leading manufacturer of pallets, distributor of packaging and supplier of warehousing solutions. MCP Group was established in 1978 by local man Johnny Lehane from a single warehouse, having seen a gap in the market to repair used pallets. As manufacturing in Ireland grew exponentially, MCP became experts in the pallet repair industry, which allowed them to expand into pallet manufacturing. Initially, these new wooden pallets of various sizes, styles, etc, were manufactured by hand; however, in 1985, MCPGroup was one of the first companies in Ireland to buy an automated pallet manufacturing machine and over a decade later they purchased their second automated pallet manufacturing machine. In 1995, MCP Group diversified their operations, expanding steadily into the supply of customised packaging solutions for the food, drinks, e-commerce and medical packaging industries. Since then MCP Group have worked hard, innovated and made multiple capital investments such as their Combined Heat & Power Plant in 2019, solar panels in 2022 and third pallet manufacturing machine in 2024. Today, MCPGroup operates from a 1,000,000 sq. ft. manufacturing and storage space, where they produce over 14,000 pallets daily, supply more than 15,000 types of Packaging products and 50,000 Pallet Warehouse capacity. MCP Group also strategically provides Warehousing opportunities for its customers’ existing products or other packaging options, which allows its customers to expand their own operations while having a centralised depot for key supply chain products backed by our Distribution and Fulfilment service. Due to the continued expansion of the warehousing operation at Clondrohid, Co Cork and the steady growth of the manufacturing business, MCP are now offering permanent, secure job opportunities to general operatives and good inwards staff who want to grow and work with a successful Irish indigenous company in the locality.
