I have a friend that is coming to tour all of Ireland and would love to talk with anyone to get tips.
Anxious to hear from everyone.
Possibly your best bet would to make this a Topic on the Board for yourself. But as a Scot, I can tell you in Scotland we have the Woollen Mills with Aran knitted items. Whisky of course and tartan. Also we have wonderful Edinburgh Crystal, might be difficult to transport but I know they do it. Edinburgh might be a good place to start.
Hope that helps
