Founded in 2012, Doherty Woodshavings LTD supplies high-quality animal bedding and biomass wood pellets to the NI and ROI markets. Despite our recent founding, Doherty’s history extends much further than our registered company roots. Starting as a small, local business catering to the needs of the agricultural community, Doherty’s began over 30 years ago in a yard situated between Cullybackey and Portglenone, in the heart of the Antrim countryside. Originally started by Francis and Marie and known as F&M Doherty, the business is still owned and run by the Doherty family today; using these years of expertise to continue to develop and grow.
The Doherty Group now employs over 25 full-time & part-time staff across 5 locations and is home to 3 standalone brands; SUBLIME Cattle Bedding, Pure Purrs Litter & Lasta Wood pellets. Our customer base ranges from pet owners, to farmers, to businesses and co-operatives. Despite our continued growth, we strive to maintain our personal approach to business, seeing our customers as more than just a name and trying to understand the problems they face day-in-day-out to see how we can best help solve them.
As we continue to move forward as a business, we will continue in our mission to provide high-quality, sustainable products for our customers without losing the key things that have made us the business we are today. By doing so we will stay true to the core principles that matter to us:
- Honesty
- Sustainability
- Innovation
- Community
