New 10-year hospitality deal for Levy Ireland with Convention Centre Dublin

Levy Ireland has announced a 10-year contract extension to provide hospitality services at The Convention Centre Dublin (The CCD), Ireland’s world-class conference and event venue. Fitzers Catering originally won the contract back in 2010 when the venue first opened. Levy Ireland is a partnership between Fitzers Catering and Levy’s Irish business, formed in 2022. Levy Ireland culinary director, Lenny Fearon and team say they aim to create memorable experiences for The CCD guests. This includes transforming The Forum exhibition area into a street food market for a large corporate event, serving authentic dishes from across the globe. The CCD is accredited for Event Sustainability Management ISO 20121 and Environmental Standard ISO 14001, and a key priority for The CCD and Levy Ireland will be a continued focus on how to minimise environmental impact, ensuring a climate conscious and sustainable operation. Levy Ireland will work with The CCD on Climate Net Zero targets which include the exclusive use of Irish meat, free-range eggs, and seasonal vegetables on menus, plus all desserts to be 100% plant-based by 2024. Jon Davies, managing director of Levy UK + Ireland, commented: “It is great to partner with another leading business which shares the same values. We are proud to have The Convention Centre Dublin in the Levy portfolio and look forward to continuing this successful partnership for many years.” Stephen Meehan, chief executive at The CCD, noted: “We are delighted to extend our partnership with the Levy Ireland team. After 13 successful years together, we look forward to continuing to work with the team as they delight our clients and delegates with the best of sustainable Irish produce and food.”
