Killeigh's Anthony extends reindeer range for Christmas 2025

By Rebekah O'Reilly

Killeigh native Anthony Gorman has extended his magical wooden reindeer range for the Christmas season of 2025

This year, Anthony has announced three brand new coat styles for the baby reindeers: Green jacket with a Santa icon, white jacket with a Reindeer icon, and classic red with a Snowman icon.

The adorable decorations are available in Lidl stores nationwide from November 2, and in Dunnes Stores nationwide from November 12.

"I’d encourage everyone to grab your baby reindeer early, so you can get your favourite colour for your home this Christmas," he said.

Speaking to the Offaly Independent last year, Anthony said: “I had no idea it would go so far. I never expected to sell the reindeer outside of my school or my family.”

Sharing how the magic of the festive season caused his business idea to flourish, the 20-year-old said: “I came up with the idea in 2019. I was in third year, and I had to come up with a CBA project for my Business Studies class.

“I brought a reindeer into school, and one of the teachers brought it into the staff room. It just took off from there.”
