Managed by the Milkin Corporation, Fiorgelato is the most popular name in the Philippines when it comes to Italian ice cream. The company had its beginnings back in 1989 and has since boomed across the country.
The iconic brand promises its buyers with “pure Italian ice cream made from 100% pure fresh milk” which many among the A and B market have found to be very satisfying. Nowadays, Fiorgelato branches can be found in different locations such as bake shops, coffee shops, hotels, restaurants, schools, and others.
In addition to ice creams, Fiorgelato has also launched FiorCafe and has added coffee in their arsenal.
