Getting back in the game is what it’s all about

THE former owner of O’Brien’s Sandwich Bars, Brody Sweeney, is back in business.

The former millionaire went broke last year after the sandwich bar empire he set up back in 1988, at a time when a decent sandwich was hard to get anywhere, collapsed under his nose. He is quick to point out most of the stores have survived under new ownership.

Talking on the John Murray programme on RTÉ last week Sweeney said after the collapse of the business he was deserted by about 30% of the people he had been doing business with.
