Nick Angelucci
G'Day, I'm Nick Angelucci, BBQ Maestro and owner at BBQAroma Barbecues Australia.
Nick Angelucci's Bio:
Avid technology enthusiast branching into the world of BBQ. Hello, my name is Nick Angelucci and I have a keen interest in grilling over charcoal.
In my previous roles which started in the 90's, I worked for international manufacturers in the consumer electronics space. I saw fortunes rise and bust in those tech boom years, which gave me great insight in what consumers wanted.
With so much global change occurring in those years and now, I felt a driving compulsion to go at it alone and employ my own ideas to create something new and different - something I can call my own invention.
In 2007, I decided to start on a small consignment on the side from Italy on a specific type and method of charcoal BBQ called Arrosticini (something that is linked to my own family origins). I would be the first in Australia to take this to the mainstream and showing others the equipment required to do this style of skewer cooking. Soon later, what started as a small garage operation only selling on eBay, started to grown and occupy more and more of my spare time. By 2010 I would be importing from Italy, China and the US and I decided to go for it full time and open up my first retail showroom/shopfront in Sydney. Additionally I added my own eCommerce website which I developed myself into the mix and started to promote my business on facebook.

I am fortunate that I have a love and joy for food and the process involved. My ambition is to find ways to introduce, teach and supply products to those who also share the same interest. At the end of the day its not just about selling a BBQ, but more the lifestyle and satisfaction you gain from grilling your meals yourself!

Owner and operator of a specialist online business selling products sourced from different parts of the World and representing foreign brands in the Australian market.
Being totally hands on, most of my effort is in creating a public image for my business and leveraging on opportunities to promote and sell into the lifestyle market space - including direct to consumer and to businesses.
Working on an extremely tight budget and managing all aspects of running a small business, my "idea" has found growth and reputation in a tough retail environment.
My intention at this moment is to assist international start-ups and brands looking for a foot-hold into the Australian market. With years of experience in consumer marketing, distribution and product development, I am at the top of my game and keen to expand.
