Tom Berney Jr's Buan back in action

Tom Berney Jr, who set up his own leathercraft business in his family's famed Kilcullen saddlery while a student, is now back in the workshop, writes Brian Byrne.

Tom took time out for his final exams in the Business and Entrepreneurship studies he has been pursuing at Maynooth University.

But with those out of the way, he's now getting stuck in seriously to developing the Buan label leather bags and wallets which he began while a student.

He has set up his own bench at the back of the workshop, where he's the sixth generation of the Berney family working with leather in Kilcullen.
