The Beginning of Álainn

Our founder, Gerard, returned home from a graduate visa stint in San Francisco with a simple but bold idea: to escape the rat race of tech sales and combine his passion for health, fitness, and good nutrition into something real. That spark has since grown into the thriving business we are today.

Humble Beginnings in Galway

Our journey commenced with nothing more than a few tables, a trusty Nutribullet, and a €99 gazebo from Argos. With humble beginnings in the heart of Galway, we started out with a passion for bringing fresh, nutritious açai to our community. What began as a small operation has since grown, but we’ve never forgotten the values that brought us here: hard work, quality ingredients, and a love for what we do.

Expanding the Álainn Experience

We're always pushing ourselves to innovate and bring something new to the table. We're ecstatic to finally launch our own range of high-protein overnight oats, handcrafted nut butters, and gluten-free granolas, each crafted with the same passion that started our journey. Our latest leap into the wholesale açai distribution world has been one of our most exciting milestones yet, allowing us to share our love for high-quality, nutritious products on a larger scale across Ireland.
