FDC Group in the Southeast: Lismore
The Lismore office was reestablished after its relocation from Dungarvan to its current location in 2010 due to continued growth and expansion.
It has built a long-standing reputation in the local community, with team members serving clients for decades.
As the building is a former house, clients are surprised they walk into the office with its four floors.
“It’s a small office, but a busy office. We’re on the phone with clients the whole time, and people are in and out every day.” – Nicola Healy
The office is run by a highly experienced three-person team:
- Pat: 40 years with FDC
- Nicola: 20 years with FDC
- Karen: 6 years with FDC
Combined, the team brings more than 65 years of experience to clients across the region.

I’m here 20 years, so we’re dealing with the sons and daughters now.
We’re here to help.
