Award-winning Brooke & Shoals appears on the Late Late Show

-

GREYSTONES business Brooke & Shoals made an appearance on the Late Late Show last Friday.

In the past 10 years, the company has grown from having one gift shop, to a large wholesale business with an office and warehouse in Kilcoole. Founder and fragrance designer Alison Banton expanded the business into creating her own scented candles, home fragrance and body products which are now sold in over 200 retailers in Ireland and through distributo­rs in Europe.

High profile retailers such as House of Fraser, Meadows & Byrne and Carraig Donn now all carry the brand. They won five different awards this year for their fragrance products, including two Free From skincare awards in the UK, an Image Magazine beauty award, and an Irish Country Magazine Irish-made award.

They toasted this achievemen­t with an appearance on the Late Late Show. Presenter Ryan Tubridy praised Brooke & Shoals for being high quality and Irish made. He also uttered those famous words ‘ there’s one for everyone in the audience’, and everyone received a hamper of scented candles, diffusers and body products.
