'It's fantastic to be recognised for all the hard work and effort' said owner Robert Cullen. 'We were runner up last year and pushed ourselves even harder this year. In the last 12 months, we have  increased our product range, we have started selling Fish, we have a Home Delivery Service and have a monthly newsletter for our Customers' he added.

The Awards Ceremony took place in the Parkview Hotel and was  attended by over 200 Chamber members from Wicklow. Cullens  Quality Butchers beat off some tough competition from other great  retailers such as Anne Harris Jewellers, Bridge Street Books, Footloose, All Shades and Unicare Pharmacy.
