MACCARTHY & SONS - Key Persons
Our founder William (Liam) MacCarthy learnt the box trade working with his wife's family business and then started out on his own from his kitchen at his house in Camberwell. Little did he know the company would still be thriving 4 family generations after him. Liam was a prominent figure in the London based Irish community helping many Irish families find work and settle in London. He also donated a cup to be awarded to the winners of the All Ireland Hurling Final. The Liam MacCarthy Cup is still awarded every year to the winners.
