    Veeno,
    Italian Wine Bar & Kitchen

    Presentation

    Veeno is an authentic Italian wine bar and kitchen, bringing the taste and culture of Sicily to the UK, starting with wines sourced directly from our family vineyard. Founded in 2013 in Manchester, it combines casual Italian dining with a warm, relaxed, and social wine bar experience.

    Guests enjoy shareable Italian dishes, carefully curated wine pairings, and a welcoming, family-style experience. Veeno’s identity is rooted in authenticity, vineyard-to-glass quality, and genuine hospitality. Positioned as a specialist Italian wine bar with accessible premium pricing, it encourages repeat visits and performs strongly in lively urban locations.

    With six UK venues (including one franchise) and a location in Poland, Veeno is expanding through franchising, seeking partners who share a passion for hospitality and want to build a local business grounded in authenticity, warmth, and true Italian wine culture.

    Sector assets

    The hospitality (food & beverage) and leisure sector is attractive because it benefits from strong, recurring demand: people consistently spend on eating out and drinking for social occasions, celebrations, and “after-work” moments. It also offers high repeat-visit potential, driven by customer loyalty, word-of-mouth, and online reviews.

    Another strength is the range of revenue streams available beyond meals—drinks-led occasions, sharing formats, group bookings, private hire, corporate events, and seasonal promotions—helping operators balance trading across the week and increase average spend.

    Finally, the sector is highly brand-driven and scalable: concepts that combine great product, atmosphere, and service can become local destinations and grow successfully across multiple sites.
