History
O'Neills Irish International Sports Company Ltd. was founded in 1918 by Charles O'Neill, when it primarily focused on the production of footballs and hurling balls from their factory at Capel Street, Dublin. By 1960, the brand had grown in size considerably and its popularity had grown, leading to its expansion into manufacturing playing kits for the GAA market. By 1974, the company had expanded their operations, and opened their first base in Northern Ireland at Strabane, followed by a company move from Capel Street to Walkinstown Avenue by 1984.[2]
The Strabane plant employs around 500 staff, and is the main production facility for Gaelic football, rugby union, field hockey, and basketball apparel.[3]
In 2010, the company launched their official online store with a further expansion of the online shopping element of the business taking place in 2013.[4]
By 2022, O'Neills employs around 900 staff in key locations such as the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland (United Kingdom), Australia and the United States.[5]
