Over 30 years of real-world experience across global brands and independent operations, brought directly to your business.
Who Are We?
Foodication Restaurants Ltd is a London-based hospitality and food & beverage consultancy founded in 2013 by Vasken Jermakian. We work with food entrepreneurs, independent operators, and growing hospitality businesses, helping them start smarter, operate better, and scale with confidence.
With over three decades of hands-on experience across the full spectrum of food service — from global QSR and fast-casual brands to independent neighbourhood restaurants — we bring a rare combination of corporate rigour and entrepreneurial understanding to every client engagement.
Since 2013, we have been a trusted workshop facilitator at the British Library's Business & Intellectual Property Centre (BIPC) in King's Cross — one of the UK's most respected resources for entrepreneurs and small business owners. For over twelve years, we have delivered the flagship workshop, "Learn how to open your restaurant, café, bakery, or food business " to over one thousand aspiring food entrepreneurs from across the country.
To raise the quality, sustainability, and success rate of food businesses in the UK — by giving founders and operators the knowledge, tools, and guidance they need, at every stage of their journey.
Our Mission
Why Foodication?
There are many consultants in the food space. Very few combine the scale of global brand experience with the empathy and practicality that independent operators genuinely need.
Real operational experience
Both sides of the industry
Practical, not academic
End-to-end capability
Not theory, not textbooks. We've washed the dishes, run the kitchens, managed the teams, and sat in the boardrooms of major hospitality brands. Our advice comes from having done the job — not just observed it.
Senior roles at PizzaExpress and Starbucks meet grassroots food entrepreneurship. That dual perspective — corporate discipline alongside independent operator empathy — is genuinely rare in consultancy.
Every recommendation we make is grounded in what actually works in a real food business, on a real day of trading. Not what looks good in a report — what actually makes a difference.
From your first idea through compliance, operations, and growth — Foodication provides continuity of expertise across every stage of your journey, under one roof.
Our Workshops
Before embarking on your journey of establishing a food and drink business in the UK, equip yourself with all the essential knowledge you need to launch and run a successful operation, led by Vasken Jermakian at the British Library, London.
