Case Study Forno 500 Italian Restaurant

Located in the heart of Dublin City, Forno 500 is dedicated to crafting truly authentic Neapolitan pizza. After months of determination, the team persuaded the renowned Ferrara family, fourth-generation oven builders from Naples, to create Ireland’s first fixed wood-fired oven. Built using traditional materials such as Santa Maria bricks and volcanic ash mortar, the oven quickly became the heart of Forno 500 and a symbol of their commitment to authenticity.

Just five months after opening, Forno 500 achieved the prestigious Vera Pizza Napoletana (AVPN) certification, placing it among a small number of pizzerias worldwide to meet this rigorous standard.

Our role was to create content that told this story with clarity and impact, highlighting the craftsmanship behind the oven, the dedication to tradition, and the significance of AVPN certification. Through thoughtful storytelling and visual content, we helped position Forno 500 as Dublin’s premier destination for authentic Neapolitan pizza.
