Surf Seeds are a brand new Irish healthy snack food product based in Drunshambo Co. Leitrim. The man behind the product Tim Rooney developed the idea of using sunflower and other seed varieties as a healthy snack food after developing a range of seeded breads for a large supermarket chain.

To date Surf Seeds has been awarded a gold medal at the Great Taste Awards, successfully pitched to RTE’s Dragon’s Den and proved to be a huge hit at the recent International Food Exhibition in London.

He looks on communications not just as the publicity piece ‘at the end’ but actually as a core skill that should be planned into every part of any business from the smallest to the biggest and which will hugely benefit those businesses that do.
