Jake Bucknall: Selling pizzas in lockdown to a thriving food business
The Small Business Sessions, Enterprise Nation's podcast, is back for a eighth exciting series of inspiring entrepreneurial stories and expert business tips! The podcast is powered by the business.connected online training programme and our partners Vodafone Business, Constant Contact, JP Morgan and Dropbox.
Joining freelance journalist Dan Martin for the sixth episode is Jake Bucknall, co-founder of pizza business Dinner for One Hundred.
Chef Jake started the company in South London in 2020 with his former tour guide friend Jacob as a dinner for 100 people.
But then lockdown hit so they decided to sell pizzas outside Jacob's mum's house. The popularity was so great that they ran out of space and moved to a pop-up site.
That has now been developed into a permanent pizzeria, alongside another bar, selling their pizzas in a central London pub and running four events a month.
In the show, Dan and Jake discuss topics including
- the impact of the pandemic
- tips for setting up a restaurant
- how to be successful at crowdfunding
- the secrets to putting on a great event
- tips for business success
