Italian company search financial partner to open new ice-cream shops based on an innovative production method
An Italian company, specialized in manufacturing of handmade ice-cream, has developed a new way to produce the ice-cream through the zero ICE process (secret know-how) that allows to have the final product never frozen, always silky and more digestible. The company is looking for financial partners to expand its production in other countries (above all Germany and Northern Europe)
The company, founded in 2012 in Italy, is specialized in the production of an innovative handmade ice-cream, based on a zero ice process. This exclusive whipping technique, based on a secret know-how, ensures a less cold ice cream, because it is not freezed and it does not contain ice slices inside, allowing a more intense flavour and greater digestibility. Furthermore the innovative process allows to have a final product (1) lighter, using more milk rather than cream and taking in less air, and (2) vary varied, the specialized artisans are able to realize more than 100 flavours, having also a special attention to Vegan and Lactose intolerants needs. Another particular characteristic is the self-service system that allows to customer to have an experiential moment through the autonomous “creation” of the ice cream and the payment by weight of the final product. The company, well established and highly known in Italy with over 70.000 fans on Facebook / 20.000 on Instagram, is looking for financial partners to reach new markets. In particular, based on internal research and market studies, the company is interested in the German market and other countries based in Northen Europe (Netherlands, Sweden, Norway...)
