US artisanal gelato brand Gelato-go has launched its first store in Asia at Tsim Sha Tsui in Hong Kong.

Located at The Nate, Gelato-go Hong Kong features more than 20 flavors of gelato handcrafted daily for consumers.

“We know Asian customers love sweet dessert and we have a huge variety of Italian dessert and gelato flavors,” said Alessandro Alvino, co-founder at Gelato-go. “Bringing it to Hong Kong is to share something from our country”.

Beside its selection of fresh Italian ice cream and snow mousse flavors, it also offers different styles of desserts, sandwiches, and beverages, such as traditional Italian Cannoli ricotta cheese rolls, cream croissants and milkshakes.

Founded in 2013 by three young Italians, Gelato-go is one of the fastest-growing chains in its category within the US market and operates 14 locations between Florida and California. Hong Kong is its first destination outside US.
