Voya has been named Overall National SFA Small Business Winner 2025 at the recent SFA (Small Firms Association) National Small Business Awards.
The awards celebrate the achievements of small businesses in Ireland, and recognise the important and vital contributions of this sector to the Irish economy.
Based in Co Sligo with a team of 43, Voya was founded in 2006 by Mark and Kira Walton, who initially launched a retail seaweed bath, before going on to develop a skin and body care line. The company has since evolved into a global lifestyle brand, and its products can be found in over 42 countries worldwide.
According to the SFA, Voya, which was also named Exporter of the Year, has “redefined luxury skincare on a global level, combining ethical sourcing with a commitment to sustainability”.
“Our overall winner, along with all finalist and category winners, deserve recognition for their outstanding innovation, creativity and invaluable contribution to the Irish economy,” added Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment Peter Burke.
