One of Ireland’s oldest butcher and deli shops closes after 104 years with Drogheda locals heartbroken

One of Ireland’s oldest family butchers, deli and grocers closed last weekend after 104 years and three generations as a family-run business.

Kieran’s Deli on Drogheda’s main street, known to locals for its quality meats and hot and cold deli foods, made the difficult decision to hang up their aprons for good on March 26.

A long-running family business, it has served the people of Drogheda since it opened in 1918 and has survived brushes with the Black and Tans in the 1920s as well as a fire in the 1950s.
