December 2010: Morelli Ice Cream join forces with Fegans Foodservice in the Greater Dublin area.

 Morelli's Ice Cream is etched in Irish culinary history having being established in 1911.

Morelli's famous Italian Ice Cream is a name widely associated with the North Coast of Northern Ireland. Back in the early 1900's, a cone of Morelli's ice cream was a treat for holiday makers and as the family business prepares to celebrate its 100th Birthday, the legend is living on and its legacy has surpassed the wildest dreams of the hard-working Italian men who were responsible for bringing it to Irish shores all those years ago.

Originally from Casalattico, a village nestled high in the Abruzzi mountains of Italy, the Morelli family left to seek work elsewhere and settled both in Scotland and Ireland. Armed with a secret ice cream recipe, they quickly opened cafes in Coleraine, Strabane and Ballymena follwed by shops in the seaside towns of Portrush and Portstewart.

Morelli's ice cream is made using a unique combination of Italian ingredients and Irish Double Cream. Morelli's continually updates their ever-expanding flavour list to meet the demands of today's cosmopilitan consumer. The family is also a regular prize-winner at the prestigious National Ice Cream Competitions having secured the first prize Silver challenge Cup for Dairy Vanilla ice cream in 2009.

Today, the fourth and fifth generations of the MOrelli family are running and working in the business, and as the milestone of the centenary celebrations approaches, the family is looking forward to the next hundred years.

They do all the classic flavours such as Double Cream Vanilla and Belgian Chocolate Chip but they also have innovative ice-creams such as Rhubarb & Custard and Violet Crunch. For the health conscious amongst us. There is a sugar free alternative and a range of fat free sorbets. Pack sizes range from 4.5.lt to 150ml individual portion pots.   

November 2010: Fegans Foodservice announce Buttermountain as a strategic partner.

Buttermountain are a chilled food and dairy specialist with strong expertise in all fresh produce. They are moving in to our Finglas depot to make use of our state of art refrigeration facilities.

This will allow us to broaden our range of cheeses & dairy products at better pricing for our customers. That is something we all need in this day and age.

March 2009: Our Cleaning Products & Chemicals range is now the broadest in Ireland

We import products from across the world to ensure you can buy the best quality products at affordable prices. Please contact us if you would like a product list.
