'12 Quail Farm' based in County Leitrim is one of 100 companies showcasing this week.

A native of Estonia, Tiina Laas arrived in Leitrim 20 years ago and she began running a quail farm on her one acre holding in Foxfield.

She initially bought 12 of the birds for her own use but soon expanded the flock and was soon selling to shops and restaurants throughout the region.

Although Tiina's Quail eggs were selling well, she knew that the business would not survive on selling eggs alone.

Tiina then decided to turn her hobby of making handcrafted soaps from donkey milk into a business

Tommy Stenson has been speaking to the marketing manager at 12 quail eggs ,Cianán Redmond about the donkey soaps.
