I am informed by Údarás na Gaeltachta that there is currently one client company in the fur sector, Tazetta Teo, which has received support since 2009. The company was formed in 1992 following the amalgamation of Jet Mink Teo. and Cilfin Teo., which had established mink farms in the same area in Donegal in 1969.

Údarás na Gaeltachta grants to Tazetta Teo. since 2009 are outlined below.
