Gelatissimo

The Gelatissimo brand has been built on a commitment to using the perfect combination of the finest ingredients to produce irresistible artisan gelato made fresh daily in store. 2012 marked ten years of operation as one of Australia’s most recognizable and successful franchises. Gelatissimo’s ingredients for success include a strong cohesive senior management team, steady and sustainable Australian and international expansion, underpinned by astute franchisee selection, distinctive marketing and an ongoing commitment to product innovation and training. Joint CEOs, Domenico and Marco Lopresti, have lived and breathed gelato for most of their lives, lead Gelatissimo’s talented team. Australian expansions continues apace, with Gelatissimo using extensive experience to site selection ensuring new outlets are ideally located, and supports its franchisees with lease negotiation and store fit-outs. Gelato is proving to be an international language with gelaterias in Kuwait, the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore and Italy. Unlike some franchises, Gelatissimo has rejected undisciplined growth that disadvantages existing franchisees and weakens the entire network. Its recruitment process has been refined where new franchisees are only accepted once they have displayed commitment to product excellence, customer service and a passion of the brand and its products.
