SouthPark Small Business Stories
The heart and soul behind Mano Bella Artisan Foods
Meet Raffaele and Madison Patrizi
What started as a dream became a celebration of Italian flavors, crafted with ingredients from local farms across North Carolina and South Carolina. They began out of their kitchen, became a staple at local farmers markets, expanded to a food stall inside The Market at 7th Street, and now celebrate their Italian culture and cuisine in their first full brick and mortar space in SouthPark's Morrison Shops.
From Peculiar Pig Farm's heritage-breed pork to Tidewater Grain Company's heirloom Carolina Gold Rice, every dish tells a story of community, sustainability, and tradition.
