Fáilte go Inbhear.
Welcome to Inver.
Our name comes from a village of 117 people on the wild coast of County Mayo, Ireland. Small place, big grit. That's how we work.
Why Inver?
A name that carries grit and determination.
Inver (Inbhear) is a village of just 117 people in County Mayo, Ireland. It is where co-founder Tom McDermott's mother, Bridget Monaghan, left home at 17. Her grit and determination were passed down to Tom, and we carry her village's name in everything we do.
