Joseph Keegan & Sons Ltd was established in 1881 by Joseph Henry Keegan bottling, wholesaling and retailing beers and soft drinks. Bottling continued well into the twentieth century with a contract to supply Guinness to Allied Breweries and the product was held in high esteem amongst stout drinkers both near and far with a reputation which was almost the envy of the Irish!

Bottling ceased in 1986 and the business then diversified into retailing with the purchase of their first Public House -The Seventy Nine - which continues to be run today by the family. In 1992 the business expanded further with acquisition of another wholesale business - James Fearon Wines - a fine wine business servicing the Hotel and Restaurant trade in the area. As the internet era emerged in the late nineties the Company improved their information technology presence with the development of Trailingvine Direct Wine - a mail order concept offering fine wines delivered to the door of any UK address within 48 hours!
