Rathfriland Farmers Co-operative Society

Market Overview

Rathfriland Farmers Co-operative Society was founded by a group of South Down farmers in July 1987, with trading beginning just a few months later in November. Since then, it has grown into one of the most trusted livestock marts in Northern Ireland, providing a vital platform for producers across County Down.

With twice-weekly sales and two dedicated auction rings, Rathfriland Mart is a key hub for cattle and sheep trading in the region.

Known for its community-driven values, Rathfriland Mart offers a well-organised and efficient auction environment supported by experienced staff. It continues to serve the South Down farming community with pride, offering consistent trade and supporting local producers through every season.
