Ooni (company)
Ooni is a Scotland-based company specializing in portable pizza ovens and accessories designed for home use. Founded in 2012 by husband-and-wife team Kristian Tapaninaho and Darina Garland, the company's initial success stemmed from a crowdfunding campaign for their first product, the Ooni Original wood-fired pizza oven.
The company's core product line revolves around pizza ovens that utilize various fuel sources, including wood pellets, gas, and electricity. These ovens are engineered to reach high temperatures (often exceeding 900°F or 480°C) necessary for cooking Neapolitan-style pizza quickly.
Ooni's product range extends beyond ovens to include accessories such as pizza peels, oven covers, and specialized tools for pizza preparation. The company distributes its products internationally through its website, online retailers, and brick-and-mortar stores.
Ooni is known for its focus on innovation and design in the outdoor cooking space, targeting consumers who want to replicate restaurant-quality pizza at home. Their marketing often highlights the portability, ease of use, and high performance of their ovens.
