Cully & Sully is a brand of ready to eat soups, pies, and risottos.[2]

History

[edit]

Cully & Sully was founded by Cullen Allen and Colum O'Sullivan.[3] The company began with a line of pies which it launched in 2004 and then five different soups which it launched in 2006.[4] In 2012, Cully & Sully was purchased by Hain Celestial Group with both Allen and O'Sullivan staying on to run the brand.[5] It also moved some of its manufacturing to the UK after the purchase.[6]

The company expanded into the United Kingdom in 2017, releasing six of its soups in Britain through Tesco[3] and in 2020 it received B Corporation status, one of only three companies in Ireland to do so.[7]
