Our Story
Humble beginnings
Every morning since 1907, in a tradition continued to this day, the ice cream at Morelli's is made fresh in every store. It began in Scotland when Giuseppe and his young son Mario, recently arrived from Southern Italy, set off on their bicycles every morning to sell their ice cream – not returning home until every last scoop was sold out.
As their signature gelato grew in popularity, soon the bicycle was replaced with a van and the business grew from strength to strength.
Bibi has taken the brand on from its roots in the UK with a vision to change the way that the world viewed gelato.
Bibi Morelli has taken the mantle of Morelli’s Gelato and expanded to the Middle East, the America’s, West Africa and Asia. The uniqueness of Morelli’s - our history, the quality and freshness of our product and the creativity of our offer - has been introduced and is well loved by a global clientele; the energy of the business is always to bring gelato - the very best of it - to the world.
