Ardmore Equine Nutrition Opens Dubai Base The Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment Mr Batt O’Keeffe TD, last night (3rd November) officially opened Waterford company Ardmore Equine Nutrition’s new base in Dubai. The event took place during the Enterprise Ireland trade mission of 45 Irish companies to the Middle East, during which €36m of contracts were secured by Irish firms. Ardmore Equine Nutrition has been servicing the UAE horse and camel industries for almost 20 years, but the new office will allow the company to grow its business in the region. Speaking at the event, Minister O’Keeffe described the opening as ‘a proud day for the Gleeson Family for their very impressive business.’ ‘As a frequent visitor to Ardmore and a friend of the Gleesons, I am delighted to see the family-owned business expand in this important market and wish them every success as they grow their business into the future.'
