Shoe manufacturer Dubarry saw a 44 per cent increase in overseas sales last year, The Irish Times reports.
The firm, which is a long-time supporter of sailing in Ireland, reported pretax profits of €1.95 million on revenue that topped the €20 million mark, an increase of more than €4 million on the previous year.
Though shoe sales are on the decline in Ireland, growth in export markets - and the success of Dubarry's new clothing range – has more than offset any domestic losses, said marketing director Michael Walsh.
Dubarry was recently title sponsor of the Fireball World Championships at Sligo Yacht Club last month.
