and Peacemaker, Brendan O’ Regan
pioneered the first Duty Free in 1948, was
a founder of the Shannon industrial estate,
and major contributor to Ireland’s economic
development from the 1950s. He was
pivotal in opening Ireland to world trade
and international tourism. The new visitors

achievements of this remarkable patriot.
