Export Industry Awards Programme
The Irish Exporters Association’s Export Industry Awards in its 23rd year is the premier event for recognising the achievements of Irish Exporters and has been growing in strength and recognition each year. It is important that we highlight the exporting companies and service providers who have excelled across the industry despite some difficult trading conditions and that we highlight these companies who have been fundamental to Ireland’s success.
Exporting businesses have been an essential part of Ireland’s global success despite incredibly difficult international trade conditions over recent years. The Export Industry Awards allows us to celebrate those Irish businesses that continue to succeed in an increasingly uncertain world and who have been fundamental to Ireland’s success.
Applications for the IEA Export Industry Awards 2025 are now OPEN!
We’re proud to say we’re Ireland’s premier export focused awards programme. Our judging panel is 100% independent and the application process is completely free of charge.
Join over 500 industry professionals in celebrating remarkable achievements at this prestigious annual black-tie event on 3rd October at the Dublin Royal Convention Centre.
