Walsh Family Foods closed its doors earlier this month with the loss of 50 jobs and a receiver is to be appointed to the business next week. The company, based in the Poppintree industrial estate in Finglas, could no longer sustain heavy losses caused by the weakness of sterling against the euro and tough competition from UK rivals.

The company patented its recipe for spice burgers, but the product’s popularity never really expanded beyond Ireland. It remained the only producer, so future supplies may depend on the ability of a receiver to find new interests to take over the business.

We, the undersigned, request that the Department of Enterprise, Trade & Employment intervene to save this company and to save the spice burger from being removed from the Irish Consumer's retail shelves forever. It is part of our history and we want to keep it part of our future.
