How did your business start?

What’Soup started when I was on my maternity leave and had the need to have nutritious and quick meals on hand. Being a chef, I started putting recipes together and thought that frozen “ready to eat” soups would make a great quick, easy and nourishing meals and that’s how the business was born.

 
What is one piece of advice you would give to someone considering starting their own small business?
 
Be Brave and don’t give up! The struggles are real and they can hit you hard sometimes but so is the local community. So, talk to people, share your fears and hear from the ones that are doing it longer than you and learn from them. Investing in your dream is not always easy but once you do and believe in it there is nothing better or more satisfying.

Thanks, Bella! We appreciate you joining us this season! 

Find What’soup this week at the market, September 22nd, from 3-7pm in Tipperary Park.
