Dublin Food Chain is the network for County Dublin's food sector: producers, retailers, distributors and the people who support them. The organisation runs on contacts, events and a newsletter, and all three live in Apricot Manage.

What we built

The website is the visible part. Behind it, the same system holds the CRM, sends the email campaigns and manages event registration, so a new member added at an event is on the next newsletter without anyone retyping anything.

In 2026 we rebuilt the member directory. Each company has a profile the member edits themselves, with a photo tile, colour and banner options, published to a searchable public directory. Lists that used to be a spreadsheet are now a public asset for the network.

Running it

Apricot hosts and maintains the platform, and the Dublin Food Chain team runs their events and campaigns from it.
