Huge congratulations to Conways Kildavin who were recently named Carlow County Green Business of the Year by Carlow Local Enterprise Office.

For over 60 years, Conway’s Bar and Restaurant in Kildavin has been more than just a place to eat or meet, it has been an integral part of the Kildavin community. Built as a family business and sustained by generations of loyal customers, Conway’s has always stood for high quality, resilience, hard work and local pride.

Today, like many hospitality businesses, they are navigating a challenging and rapidly changing landscape. Rising costs and economic pressures are realities they face every day. But while their roots are proudly traditional, their mindset is firmly focused on the future.

Sustainability for them is not a trend, but a responsibility to the community that has supported them for six decades.

Before receiving grant support to modernise their beer line systems form Carlow Local Enterprise Office, they had already taken decisive steps by installing solar power panels, reducing their dependence on the national grid and lowering their environmental impact. A waste-compacting system was introduced to improve how they manage and minimise waste.

Looking ahead, they are actively working with an international electric vehicle charging provider to explore the installation of EV charging points in the car park, helping future-proof the premises for customers choosing cleaner transport options.
