Mr Pat Glennon, Glennon Brothers, Mr Athos Stylianou Managing Director of RSM Greece and Mr Mike Glennon, Glennon Brothers, receiving the Ruban d’Honneur medal in Istanbul in Turkey.

In recognition of the export strategy used by Glennon Brothers, who have a sawmill in Fermoy, brothers Pat and Mike were in Istanbul last week to receive the prestigious Ruban d'Honneur medal at a gala dinner. 

Having been selected as an Irish National Champion in November 2012, Glennon Brothers were subsequently awarded a prestigious Ruban d’Honneur. The Ruban d’Honneur recognises companies throughout Europe who have displayed innovation, dynamism and customer focus.

Mike Glennon told The Avondhu that they are delighted to have been selected among some of Europe's leading companies to receive the Ruban d'Honneur.

"We are thrilled to receive this recognition in our centenary year. We would especially like to thank our very loyal customers who have placed their faith in us and who have supported us through the highs and lows of our sector. We have been very lucky over the years to have customers who believed in us, and we hope this award validates their judgement in supporting us," Mike said.

"The award is testament to our dedicated, hard working, and fabulous team of people in Longford, Fermoy, Arklow, Troon, and Edinburgh, that make up Glennon Brothers today. This team of people have faced tremendous challenges over the last couple of years as some of their traditional markets collapsed. They have worked incredibly hard to find innovative solutions.

"We would also like to thank RSM and all the sponsors, for their investment in this programme, which rightfully champions the important role of business leaders in Europe today," Pat Glennon added.
