Codd Mushrooms, located in Tullow, Co Carlow, is a family owned and managed business - growing the finest quality mushrooms on the Codd family farm since 1989. With initial beginnings from a small growing shed, the company has now progressed to a modern, purpose-built mushroom production and packing facility with 18 growing rooms. The company's 250 staff produce over 5,000 tonnes of mushrooms annually. With over 30 years' experience in both the production and marketing of mushrooms, it is now the largest supplier of mushrooms into the Irish market, supplying both major retailers and the food-service, and strives to be one of the most innovative and environmentally friendly mushroom production facilities in Europe.
