Abbott Ireland Nutrition Sligo

We understand that proper nutrition is the foundation for living the best life possible. That’s why we develop science-based nutrition products for people of all ages. Our products help babies and children grow, keep bodies strong and active, and support the unique nutrition needs of people with chronic illnesses — to make every stage of life a healthy one.

Abbott is a leader in providing enteral nutrition feeding devices, including enteral feeding pumps and pump sets. Enteral feeding (also known as tube feeding) is a means of providing nutrition to people who cannot obtain nutrition by swallowing. Enteral nutrition contains all the calories and vitamins a person needs.

Abbott’s journey in Ireland began in 1974 with our first manufacturing facility in Sligo. Over the years, we’ve transformed from manual operations to a state-of-the-art, fully automated facility. Now located in Carbury Point, Finisklin, Sligo, our award-winning site is recognized for operational excellence, safety, training, and community involvement. The prestigious Shingo Prize for Operational Excellence highlights our commitment to continuous improvement and a culture of excellence, delivering sustainable results year after year.
