About Made with Grá

Curated Irish food. With heart, heritage and a bit of boldness.

A founder-led Irish food brand

I started Made with Grá after moving home to Ireland. I had just finished my MBA and returned after over a decade living abroad. Like so many Irish people away from home, I used to scour international shops for a taste of home. A pack of Tayto. A good butter. Something that felt like Ireland.

Coming back, I saw how much had changed. The pride. The quality. The new generation of Irish food producers doing things differently. Pickling, fermenting, baking and bottling small-batch goods with real craft. It felt like something worth sharing.

Rooted in real experience

I grew up on an orchard. Our family business is in apples, and I’ve always known what good, honest food looks like from the ground up. But this time, I wanted to do things my own way.

What is Made with Grá?

Made with Grá is a curated Irish food brand.

It’s a way to gift Ireland’s best small-batch pantry goods, all in one beautiful box.

It’s a platform that supports independent Irish food producers with serious flavour and story.

What does grá mean?

Grá means love in Irish.

And that’s what you’ll find in every product we stock — care, quality and connection.

Discover The Grá Box

Our first product, The Grá Box, brings together five Irish pantry items from across the island. From urban honey and chilli oil to hand-cooked crisps and playful hot sauce, every item is sourced from real people doing things properly.

Who it’s for

Whether you’re sending an Irish food gift to someone abroad, or stocking your own shelves with better pantry staples, you’re in the right place.

This is food made with care.

Made with grá.

And made to be shared.
