A Brief History...
The history of McLaughlin's can be traced back to around 1874 when James McLaughlin opened a small hardware store in Ogle Street Armagh.

The business developed and at the turn of the century, his son Senator Thomas McLaughlin joined the family company. It was around this time the firm began importing bottle corks from Spain and supplying bottles to local publicans. An Auctioneering business was started in 1920.

In 1944 T. G. McLaughlin, in turn joined the company. The Catering Supply business was expanded and a very successful Crown Cork manufacturing plant established. In 1970 a furniture manufacturing facility was developed.

To-day, four generations on, Thomas McLaughlin Ltd remains a family operated company and are Ireland's leading supplier of Hotel and Restaurant Equipment.
