Meanwhile, the 2024 Hall of Fame award was given to Julian Ball of R. McCullagh Jewellers, who has expertly led the 150-year-old family business for decades, helping it remain a fixture on Letterkenny’s Main Street.
Having just recently retired and passed on the watch-making and jewellery business to his sons Gareth and Joshua, he won the Hall of Fame award to cap off an incredibly successful career at the helm of R. McCullagh Jewellers.
