When your holiday spurs a new food innovation at home

Sofie Rooney and Garret FitzGerald are no strangers to the food and beverages business.

Chimac’s sauces are inspired by Korean cuisine and a trip the couple took to the country back in 2016. “As a Dublin city centre restaurant we were hit very hard by the Covid-19 restrictions,” Rooney adds. “We were getting calls from customers telling us the bottles were smashed when they arrived which was obviously not on and, as we have our sights set on exporting, the packaging has to be able to withstand a lot of handling. It’s something we’re still working on but it’s not easy to find packaging that works but is also sustainable,” Rooney says.

Chimac sauces employs four people including a full-time production manager and Rooney says the company will self-produce rather than outsource the manufacturing.
