Guaranteed Irish Business Awards 2025
Louth enterprise was recognised this year at the Guaranteed Irish Business Awards 2025, with both Uniquely and Caroline Duffy Designs among the prizewinners at this year's event.
The highly anticipated Guaranteed Irish Business Awards 2025, sponsored by PTSB, returned for its fourth year, delivering yet another memorable celebration of Irish business excellence. The event was filled with energy and camaraderie as members gathered to network and honour outstanding achievements.
On the night Dundalk-based company, Uniquely, took home the prestigious Business of the Year award, while Caroline Duffy Designs was winner in the Irish Fashion and Accessories Designer category.
The elegant black-tie event was held at The Round Room at The Mansion House, where 400 guests enjoyed a delicious meal crafted from locally sourced ingredients, supplied by a number of Guaranteed Irish members. The evening was hosted by renowned Irish comedian Mario Rosenstock, who kept the crowd entertained with his signature wit.
An independent panel of distinguished industry leaders from names including Matheson, An Post, SuperValu, Viatel Technology Group, and FBD Insurance, had the tough task of shortlisting a total of 84 finalists after whittling down hundreds of entries.
Brid O’Connell, CEO Guaranteed Irish, commented: “The awards night is always a fantastic opportunity for networking, but most importantly, for celebration. This year, there was an incredible atmosphere in the room. A huge thank you to all our sponsors, including title sponsor PTSB, for making it all possible.
