Hafele Ireland Ltd.

So…you want to see a few more photos from our Trade Day last week? No problem…

Once again, a big thank you to everyone who came and endured the heat! We were not expecting it to be that hot!

Dermot Bannon gave us a great insight into his own personal relationship with Hafele and how our catalogue was always one of the most sought after items in his office!

As it was our 40th anniversary party we reunited the three original Directors who set the company up in 1986:

Mr. Brendan Smith, 1st Managing Director of Hafele Ireland
Mr. Mike Smith, founding MD of Hafele UK and
Mr. Hans Nock, former CEO of Hafele Worldwide

We had 400 visitors on the day including some customers who’ve been with us from the very start - it was great to see everyone. The 27 supplier partners who exhibited gave us all a lot to talk about and showed us exactly why they are so important to our business.

Most importantly the caterers and bar staff kept everyone fed and watered long into the evening. Thank you so much to everyone who came and made the day so special. See you all again in 2028! 🎂🥂☀️🍷🍻❤️

More to follow…

Last week we held our 3rd Trade Day for our customers and here’s a little look at the preparation and set up. We covered our car park with a marquee and gave each of our suppliers an exhibition space inside. Partners with large displays in our showrooms utilised those. As hot weather was expected we built an Irish Pub in our warehouse - let’s be honest, we’d have built it if cold weather was expected as well! It was also the 40th anniversary of Hafele Ireland so we had a special reason to celebrate.

Over the course of the day, us and our 27 exhibiting suppliers welcomed over 400 visitors and some very special guests. We will post photos over the coming days to show you all how we got on!

We’re ready for you! The Häfele Ireland Trade Day is today. Come and spend the hottest day of the year with us! Open at 10am

25.06.2026 - there’s only days to go until Trade Day 2026. The biggest and best trade event in Ireland dedicated to suppliers of the furniture industry, architects and interior design consultants.
