Wellness is an important category in the Irish Made Awards – meet the previous winners and learn how to enter now
The Irish Made Awards celebrate businesses producing and making products in Ireland. From home and textiles, to fashion and accessories, the awards seek to find the next big thing. In 2022, we added a new category; Wellness. In the last few years, wellness has become more important than ever, with lots of Irish people prioritising self care and wellbeing and we’re looking for exciting businesses thriving in this sector. We wanted to acknowledge these businesses with their own distinct category, as they have amassed such a strong following amongst Irish consumers.
The wellness category is for all products that contribute to wellness in people’s lives, such as supplements, personal hygiene products, oils and products which complement people’s wellbeing such as journals and affirmation cards.
We’re delighted to welcome Jo Browne Ireland as our sponsor of the Wellness Category at the awards this year. With all products blended and hand-poured in Co Carlow, this brand offers luxury natural products both for you and your home. Winner of seven international beauty awards, the company’s ethos is to develop premium products in a natural, sustainable way.
Speaking about her involvement in the awards, founder and creator Joanne Browne said: “It is a privilege to be a part of these awards. The Wellness Category showcases the best products and the benefits of using health and wellness products to aid in physical health. These are designed to help people improve their physical wellbeing, and can help with issues such as stress and fatigue.”
