We are a duo of childhood friends who reconnected as adults in Montreal, Canada after years of geographic separation.  With diverse academic backgrounds and career paths under our belts, we each bring complementary skills to the table.  One of us is the co-founder of 514eats, one of Montreal’s first foodie blogs and influencer platforms, while the other was a fast-food franchise owner and is an avid photographer and videographer.  Despite these contrasts, what brought us together is a passion for food, small local businesses and the intersection of the two.  With 514seeds, we want to leave our mark on the Montreal economy by helping entrepreneurs achieve their dreams.

Our comprehensive suite of services is designed to accelerate your market penetration and adoption.  From providing strategic investments and tailored marketing campaigns to offering consulting and advisory services, we will assist during the challenging phase of early development.

Our focus is on the food, beverage and restaurant sectors in Greater Montreal and across the province of Quebec.  We understand the dynamics and market trends that shape these industries and leverage our expertise and skills to help businesses thrive.  Whether you are developing a food or beverage consumer product, launching a home or ghost kitchen or starting a fast/casual restaurant or delivery service, our specialized knowledge and industry connections position us as the ideal partner to assure your success.

What distinguishes us is our unwavering commitment to our clients’ growth, success and longevity.  We are not merely a silent partner or a one-and-done marketing agency.  We become deeply invested in your vision and work tirelessly on our mutual goals.  Our combined expertise in operating fast-food restaurants and executing effective social media and influencer marketing campaigns empowers us to deliver tangible results.  Additionally, our vast network of industry professionals - public relationists, marketers, influencers, food photographers, festival organizers, etc. - enables us to tap into a wide range of resources, giving your business a competitive edge.
