To highlight the contribution of NI’s family businesses to our economy, we teamed up with local community channel NVTV to produce “The Faces of Family Business”.
The 6-part series ran during June 2024 with Season 2 planned to run later in the year.
From humble homemade beginnings in a Coleraine cafe to a multi-award winning ice cream empire, the generation-spanning Morelli family story began over a century ago. Since 1911, Morelli Ice Cream has remained a pillar of family business in Northern Ireland, always ready to provide refreshment or cool down a hot summer's day. This week, Ian Smyth is joined by Daniela and Nino Morelli to hear untold family stories and learn the secrets behind the company's unending success.
The Faces of Family Business offers a rare opportunity to hear from Northern Ireland's biggest business families as Ian Smyth and Darren McDowell uncover the secret histories, challenges, and pleasures of maintaining a successful business and a strong family at the same time.
