"John Concannon" is an Irish businessman, philanthropist, and star of RTÉ's The Secret Millionaire.

A native of Kilconly, Tuam, Concannon is the founder of JFC Manufacturing. He left St. Jarlath's school, Tuam, at 13 to work on the family farm. In 1987, he invented the Triple Bucket, a product for feeding calves, which was publicised by Gay Byrne on RTÉ's The Late Late Show that December. The Triple Bucket helped him establish JFC Manufacturing, which over the next twenty-five years helped him become a multi-millionaire, owning factories across Ireland, as well as the UK, Poland, and South Africa.

In 2011, he participated in RTÉ's The Secret Millionaire, during which he spent a week in west Dublin subsisting on minimum wage and attempting to determine which charity or organisation in the area most deserved financial support.

Since then, he has supported Pieta House, which gives aid to people who suffer suicidal tendencies, as well as other charitable organisations.

He should not be confused with John Concannon, Director of Market Development at Fáilte Ireland and chairman of Gaisce – The President's Award

He?s truly a gifted athlete. He?s a wonderful young man and just a pleasure to coach.

He?s a wonderful young man. He just has a great knowledge of the game and when the game?s on the line ..he?s the one I want to have the ball.

He coordinates the defense on the field. He's the team captain so if we're on defense and I know we've got Murtaza in goal I'm feeling pretty good even though we don't have the ball.
