Bring Italy
to your city.

We didn't invent Italian food. We perfected a format.

Over 10 years operating in London's most competitive locations — Soho, Piccadilly, Belgravia, Leicester Square — we've built something most food concepts never achieve: a system that works without the founder in the room.

Standardised recipes. Codified procedures. A structured operational manual covering every role, every process, every standard. You don't need to figure out how to make it work. We already did.

Not a concept
to test.
A model already validated.

Mister Lasagna was born in London in 2016. Over 10 years, it became a real-world validation of a product, a format and a system — not a pitch deck.

Iconic London locations. International franchise in South Korea. A pandemic that forced strategic reinvention, leading to Lasagneria Italiana — a premium casual format built on the same operational backbone.

We didn't start with investors. We started with a product, refined it under pressure, and built the system around what actually works. Now we're looking for a partner for one strategic investment: a central production hub — the asset that can take the group into international franchising, large-scale retail and far beyond London.

Key fact

"Molti brand cercano capitale per costruire il sistema. Noi cerchiamo capitale per accelerare un sistema già esistente."

Current status

Self-funded since 2016 — every opening financed by reinvested profits, with no external debt. Notting Hill open. New openings in pipeline. UK property market creating real opportunities. The production hub is the one investment that should not wait for organic growth — that is where capital changes the timeline.

Why invest in us.

01
Real Track Record
10 years of presence in London. Experience in iconic locations. International validation in South Korea. Two formats already tested. New openings already in pipeline. This is not a concept to test — it's a model already validated.
02
Vertical Product, High Scalability
Lasagna is universally recognisable, standardisable and industrialisable without losing identity. Suitable for dine-in, takeaway, delivery and retail. Less complex than artisan pizza or generic Italian cuisine.
03
System Already Built
Consolidated operational manual. Codified recipes with precise quantities. Clear organisational structure. Replicable training. Multi-unit staff rotation. Defined company culture. The system exists — capital accelerates it.
04
Multi-Format Model
Mister Lasagna — scalable, contained CAPEX, high rotation. Lasagneria Italiana — premium positioning, strategic flagship locations. This duality reduces risk and broadens market potential.
05
Industrial Upside
A central production hub unlocks three growth levers: multi-unit expansion, entry into retail (supermarkets, airlines, GDO), and franchising across UK and Europe. This transforms the group from retail operator to integrated food platform.
06
Strategic Moment
Ten years of growth entirely self-funded — no banks, no outside investors. New openings imminent. UK property market creating real acquisition opportunities. Brand already recognised. Entering now means entering the acceleration phase — not the experimental one.

The next phase.

The real acceleration requires one strategic asset: a central production hub. A central kitchen or a large-format Lasagneria Italiana that becomes the industrial core of the group.

Total product standardisation — centralised production at scale.
Economies of scale — across the multi-unit network.
Retail entry — supermarkets, airlines, large-scale distribution.
Franchise infrastructure — solid base for UK and European expansion.
The transformation

From retail operator
to integrated food platform.
