An Irish company that distributes local foods over to Ozzie has closed a major deal.

Eamon Eastwood’s Taste Ireland has signed a contract with Australian retail giants Coles to stock some of our favorite foods such as Tayto crisps, Barry’s Tea, and Club Orange in about 600 shops across Australia and New Zealand.

It’s unsurprising that he was able to close such a deal, since there was huge demand for last year’s limited edition Tayto Milk Chocolate bar down under.

Although 600 isn’t a huge number, it certainly is a good start and the very fact that we will be able to get Irish food abroad, is touching itself.

Who knows, today its Australia but tomorrow it could be the U.S – there’s nothing wrong with wishful thinking.
