Mucky lecture from mum boots Conor into business

A lecture from his mum about leaving mucky wellies lying around inspired an unemployed West Cork man to launch a business.

Entrepreneur Conor O’Callaghan, 23, who lost his job in the marketing sector some months ago has just opened a new shop in Bandon.

He is selling customised welly-holders for farmers, festival-goers, children, and anybody else who has wellies and doesn’t want them lying around.
