The Focacceria Christmas Menu Launch

We attended to support a client launch and celebrate the growth of an independent Belfast food business we’re proud to work with. The evening brought together great food, strong community energy, and the live launch of a Shopify-powered platform designed to support real sales and long-term growth.

Events like this matter to us because they reflect the kind of businesses we want to back — founders who care deeply about craft, learning, and building something meaningful at a local level, while laying foundations that can scale.

An evening celebrating food, community, and the next phase of growth for The Focacceria. Hosted upstairs at House Proud, the event marked the launch of The Focacceria’s Christmas menu alongside the announcement of the newly launched Hundredth Monkey Bakery website and live crowdfunder.

Guests were invited to sample festive dishes, connect with Belfast’s food community, and hear firsthand about plans for 2026 — including the expansion into sourdough courses and a cookery school. A strong example of how local food businesses can grow with clarity, craft, and the right digital foundations in place.
