THE STORY OF DOUGH MAMMA

IMG_3931_edited.jpg

Humble Beginnings

August 31st 2021

Travelling to the Netherlands, Eoin learned his craft from a pizzaiolo who himself learned in Florence Italy. Being in the north of Italy, they like their pizza a little differently to the pizza of Naples where most people think of when they think of Italian Pizza. Eoin loved the freshness of the dough and crispy pizza produced. He knew it was a winner.

Dough Mamma sold the first pizza! The idea had come to fruition and with Millie by his side Eoin was ready to take on the world!

Eoin travelled all over selling the Dough Mamma goodness and even teamed up with Amazon Prime to give all their drivers pizzas for breakfast! It went down a treat! This was only one of numerous places he ended up with the van, the trailer, and of course... Millie.

Eoin always listens to his customers so Dough Mamma can provide them with what they want... not what he thinks they should want... The menu was expanded... and yes the controversial pineapple was added!!

Creating and developing the Dough Mamma brand is something Eoin really focuses on and is proud of. A catchy name and recognisable logo really grabs the attention of customers. Wrapping the van was a milestone for Eoin in this regard.

This picture take approx 6 months in trading... Dough Mamma was really beginning to take hold in the Listowel area and this set up had achieved so much... It was nice to take a moment just to appreciate that.

At a certain point Eoin could no longer do it alone and got some help where he could including this hilarious guy from Germany who he had some great fun with!

We took the plunge and signed the dotted line. It was time to open the Dough Mamma restaurant... but the Listowel races was only 8 weeks away... the pressure was on!

Taken during the Listowel Races... The restaurant full of people... After all the hard work it had paid off and it was nice to take a moment to appreciate what had been achieved.

The Listowel Food Fair really helped expose Dough Mamma and with the help of all the organisers it really helped the restaurant get of the ground that little bit more.

Inviting over 40 people into the restaurant for the food fair just showed me how far Dough Mamma had come from the humble beginnings at farmers markets.
