CREMERIA MANZONI
The birth of a successful ice cream parlour
The “turnkey” project for opening the “MANZONI” ice cream parlour in Viadana (MN)
The new project
It seems like yesterday that morning when Boris, Giorgio and Daniela came in to talk to us about their new project for an artisan ice cream parlour 2.0.
Paolo from G.I. Gelati immediately put them at ease and, at the same time, “interviewed” them about their idea of an ice cream parlour 2.0.
Boris’ and his business partners’ idea was to create a traditional artisan ice cream parlour by still using ancient local ice cream recipes made with older machinery (Carpigiani upright batch freezers) but also with brand new next-gen batch freezers.
The creation
After this very long chat, we organised an inspection with our architect, Carlo Chiappani, to really see if our ideas could be developed from a functional and aesthetic point of view in their chosen location. We then came up with a complete plan and presented it to the customer, including the relative representational 3D rendering, with the arrangement and layout of the venue.
Once the project was approved, and the contract had been agreed, we moved on to the operational phase:
- we prepared all the working drawings to be provided to craftsmen, electricians and plumbers to get the venue ready;
we then moved on to choosing the materials and colours to create the new venue, which was to be called “Cremeria Manzoni”; - we gave the go-ahead for the actual construction to start, which was carried out as quickly as possible;
- 30 days after the work started, we handed over the turnkey venue to the customer.
THE RESULTS
Set up in 30 days
The days before the grand opening, together with Massimo, we supported the business both during opening and then as it developed over time, providing products, training and machine maintenance.
All of G.I. Gelati would like to thank the “Cremeria Manzoni” staff for their great trust and cooperation in helping us create their new venue.
