Sheehan’s Cash and Carry is a native Irish and family-owned business whose story in trading began in 1914. We were initially a fish mongering business in the early 20th century. In the 1940s, our great-grandfather, Michael Sheehan, embarked on his wholesale journey, providing local retailers with low-cost produce during the tumultuous period of food shortages resulting from the world war and The Emergency at home.

Since then and during the latter half of the twentieth century, our family business has continued to grow and develop in the wholesale of a wide range of products. In the 1970s and 1980s, we invested in two local warehouses, dramatically grew our loyal customer base and developed a solid team of employees. Those employees have been central to our continuous drive forward since the 1980s.

We currently employ more than 20 people, most of whom have been with us since the 1990s, and our customer relationships are on first-name terms. We are now the only family-run wholesale operation in Wexford Town.

One of our significant milestones was our partnership with Stonehouse in 2000. Stonehouse is Ireland’s biggest wholesale company with a network of 24 member companies. Established in early 2000, Stonehouse is the product of the merger between Keencost Centres (Ireland), trading since 1975, and the National Wholesale Groceries Alliance, established in 1961. In bringing together the wealth of knowledge and experience, Sheehan’s is a key part of Ireland’s leading independent wholesale supplier.
