Di Rollo of Musselburgh was established in 1899 by Domenico Di Rollo, who ventured from the Italian village of Cassino to East Lothian.

What started as a humble ice cream and confectionery shop quickly blossomed into a thriving enterprise, with Domenico expanding to a second location within just a few years.

In the early 1950s, Domenico’s son, also named Domenico, spearheaded the establishment of the manufacturing and wholesale arm of the business, propelling Di Rollo to new heights.

By 1977, the family had erected new premises to accommodate their growing operations, with a third generation of Di Rollos at the helm.

Reno and Kevin, the sons of young Domenico, infused the business with fresh innovation, introducing an array of ice cream and sorbet flavours.

As demand soared, Di Rollo embarked on a journey of expansion, culminating in the construction of a state-of-the-art facility in 1994 capable of churning out more than 600 litres of ice cream per hour while adhering to the highest EU standards for food production.
