         Opportunities for Irish food and drink suppliers
          The group is constantly working on developing menus that correspond to
          the lifestyle and eating habits of guests and use genuine Irish food.

          O’Callaghan Collection has strong relationships with its suppliers and
          focuses on purchasing locally to support Irish suppliers.

          Producers will be named on the menus where appropriate and a producer
          with an innovative product should request this support.


         Purchasing policy and supplier requirements
          Good quality produce and products are the cornerstone of the group’s
          purchasing policy. Equally, ingredient pricing is an important function.

          The Head of Group Procurement will visit potential suppliers, to check
          premises and production processes.

          Full HACCP and EHO accreditation and the most recent audit
          documentation must be available on request at all times.

          Purchasing is centralised through the Head of Group Procurement, who
          sets the terms.
