Contact Hackney Gelato Portfolio / Food, Beverage & Hospitality / Hackney Gelato Hackney Gelato was established in 2015 by two former chefs, Enrico Pavoncelli and Sam Newman, who met whilst working at the renowned Michelin-starred Locanda Locatelli. After spending a summer in Italy learning from masters of the craft, premium ice-cream brand Hackney Gelato was born. The business started with pop-up stands at East London food markets before expanding into top London restaurants at the request of local chefs. The brand has quickly become a leading supplier to high-end London restaurants, as well as selling on Ocado and in a number of independent retail outlets.
