James Whelan Butchers – Five Generations of Craft For five generations, we’ve carried the craft of butchery in our hands and our hearts. Born in Clonmel and now grown across Ireland, our story has travelled far, yet its heart remains the same. 

We celebrate where we’ve come from, and our next chapter is rooted in education—empowering every person in our team to grow, create, and lead.

Now, we’re looking for the next generation to join a team recognised as a Great Place to Work® 2025, where every hand, heart, and mind matters.
