A farm fire almost 25 years ago has inspired a new generation of young agri-entrepreneurs in Kinsale.
The four include David Forde, Jack Good, John Quinn, and Sean Dinneen. All just 16 years old, the lads started their business, DJS Engineering, as part of their transition year programme at Kinsale Community School but demand for their simple but effective idea has meant they have already needed to scale up production.
