Word of mouth is proving the best advertising for nutritional smoothie-maker Wild Orchard.
The Limerick company has just signed a contract to supply up to 300 smoothies a week to the Munster Rugby Squad. According to Wild Orchard co-founder Diarmuid Crowley, the high-profile contract had more to do with chance than hard-nosed sales.
Wild Orchard Smoothies are appointed as an official supplier to Munster Rugby.
Wild Orchard Smoothies & Juices proudly announces a new association with Munster Rugby. The Munster Squad will be supplied with fruit smoothies from Wild Orchard, the Co. Limerick based producer of premium quality natural smoothies and fresh juices. The smoothies will be used by Munster as part of their nutritional program.

A recent winning spree has nested Limerick Smoothie Company Wild Orchard medals at Britain’s Great Taste Awards, the newly inaugurated Blas ns hEireann awards and a nomination for the National Enterprise Awards.

Well, as we are all aware, Tuesday Brian Lenihan, Minister for Finance, delivered his Emergency Budget 2009 to the Irish nation, signifying the depth of the current turmoil the Irish economy is facing. Mr. Lenihan advised the nation that “we are all in this together. At the end of the day, fairness means you cannot shuffle off responsibility to somebody else.” Mr. Lenihan is right, as a nation, we need to work collectively to bring us out of these tough times.

Diarmuid Crowley was working for Pepsi in Cork when he saw the way the market was going for soft drinks.
‘‘Health and wellbeing were the trend and I thought there was an opening in the Irish market for healthy fresh juice drinks,” said Crowley. It was an observation that changed his career path, leading him to set up his own drinks firm, Wild Orchard, in 2000.
