Kildare shop to feature on RTE's Nationwide this week

The Carpentry Store in the M7 Business Park in Naas will be on RTE's Nationwide on this Friday evening at 7pm.

Reporter Mary Fanning - who is based in Monasterevin - and a camera crew visited the family-run store which is one of Ireland’s largest suppliers of quality woodworking tools and supplies.

The premises, which opened in May 2003, regularly holds a Woodwork, Hobby and Craft Fair.

The Fay family are behind the enterprise and it all started in 1977 when Noel Fay Snr started out as a manufacturer of custom-built kitchens and later opened a state-of-the-art factory in 1994.

The business then expanded into The Carpentry Store 16 years ago run by Noel Jnr, Ann and Patrick to meet the requirements of the local woodworking trade and the DIY enthusiasts.

An online store was established in  2016.
