‘It makes me teary-eyed’ – Rosie Connolly opens up about 4th ARQ’s success

The new 4th Arq collection is their best yet

Founded by Rosie Connolly, 4th ARQ recently celebrated a remarkable one million sales.

In an interview with Her.ie, Rosie Connolly opened up about the overwhelming success.

She shared, "Women are so supportive of women in business. Ireland has some incredible female entrepreneurs, and being able to follow in their footsteps and be inspired by them is just huge."

Speaking about their one million sales milestone, Rosie said she gets emotional even thinking about it.

"It actually makes me teary-eyed. I feel like I live in my own little bubble within 4th ARQ. We work hard and we keep our heads down and we don't even do many press events, so we sometimes forget to celebrate the wins."

"We're just always onto the next thing. We're currently working on Spring/Summer '26, and there's just always so much going on, but we really wanted to stop and appreciate this moment," the businesswoman shared.

Rosie said it is rare for such a new brand to hit one million sales on Shopify.

"It was just so great for the team to celebrate everyone's work and to see the support. Our Irish customers are on another level; they're so supportive. They're the reason why we've gotten to this point."

4th Arq’s newest fleece, ‘The Devan’, will be launched this evening.
