Local Italian niche Target regional distributors and specialty retailers in the Midwest with authentic Northern Italian pasta and ready-to-heat meals, leveraging their traditional sourcing of Grade A eggs and natural ingredients to position as premium, authentic products.

Small team, high touch Leverage a lean operation to offer quick, flexible collaborations with local restaurants, delis, and caterers for co-branded menus, limited-edition products, or pop-up events in Highwood and surrounding suburbs.

Digital presence Capitalize on existing Wix/WordPress eCommerce setup to pilot wholesale accounts, subscription pasta boxes, or regional online promotions; emphasize social proof through Facebook and Instagram to drive B2B and B2C inquiries.

Growing revenue potential With a revenue range of one to several million, pursue channel diversification through grocery/foodservice distributors, quick-serve restaurant (QSR) partnerships, and online marketplaces to accelerate top-line growth.

Community & events Utilize participation in local events like Celebrate Highwood and in-store cooking classes to offer sponsored tastings, private chef events, and branded experiential marketing that generates leads for wholesale and direct-to-consumer sales.
