Delighted to chat to Eric Maher, co-owner of Rural Vagabonds, a “Free Wheeling Cafe”. This start up business was hard hit during the pandemic with their 3 main markets, commuters, weddings and festivals totally disappearing.
The lockdown gave Eric and his business partner the opportunity to reassess the business model and make adjustments quickly. Government supports, especially those on offer through LEO has enabled the business to pivot and avail of new opportunities. Rural Vagabonds are currently stationed at Naas Retail Park and intend to expand out their offering over the next number of months
