Oliver and his mobile pizza business, the Pizza Trail
Chef’s new venture aims to get a pizza the action
A head chef is forging a tasty future for himself by embracing his love of Italian cuisine to launch a new gourmet pizza business. Oliver Ellis has started to earn his own dough,
after he secured support from Launchpad, a unique business support programme, to help him to take his mobile pizza business, The Pizza Trail, on tour throughout Yorkshire. After graduating in languages and then working
across different restaurants, developing menus and experiencing the marketing side of the catering industry, he began dreaming of going it alone. Unsure how to commercialise his new ideas, he
contacted the Sheffield City Region Launchpad programme, run by Doncaster Chamber, which provides entrepreneurs with practical support and advice during the all-important first two years of trading. Through Oliver’s participation in the
programme he was able to get to grips with running his fledgling business, through attending the Chamber’s workshops on bookkeeping and accounting, and meeting with his business adviser to support him through the learning curve. Oliver said: “Launchpad was instrumental in
helping me to get accustomed to the ins-and- outs of business ownership and its accounting support was especially helpful.” Launchpad is the Sheffield City Region Growth
Hub’s key business support programme for new business. Financially supported by the European Regional Development Fund and delivered by local authorities within the Sheffield City Region and the Prince’s Trust, the programme provides free help and support to budding entrepreneurs in the City Region. Entrepreneurs who access Launchpad are those who are thinking of starting their own business, or have started trading within the last two years.
