This gelato van was built by Biz On Wheels for Gigio Gelateria, a gelato shop in Nutley, NJ. The high-top van carries a bright gelato-themed wrap and holds a glass-top gelato freezer, stainless steel sinks and an aluminum diamond plate interior.
Gelato Display Freezer
A glass-top freezer displays and holds gelato at serving temperature, letting customers see the flavors as they order.
Stainless Steel Sinks
A three-compartment sink and a hand washing sink are built into a stainless steel counter at the rear of the van, meeting health requirements for scooping gelato.
Interior and Climate Control
The interior is finished with aluminum diamond plate and white panels, with screened rear windows for ventilation and a rooftop A/C unit to keep the van cool.
Gelato Graphic Wrap
The full wrap features colorful gelato imagery, a checkered stripe and the Gigio Gelateria name, website and phone number, making the van a rolling advertisement for the shop.
Who This Build Is For
Gelato shops and dessert cafés use vans like this to cater events, sell at festivals and extend their storefront into the community. The compact high-top van is easy to drive and park while carrying a full gelato setup.
Customizing a Build Like This
Biz On Wheels custom builds dessert and specialty vans to order on cargo van, high-top van, step van and bus platforms. A build like this can be adapted with different freezers, display cases, sinks, generators or battery power, rooftop A/C, serving window placement, rooftop signage and a full graphic wrap. Each layout is designed around the products being served and local health department requirements. Most custom builds take about 60 to 90 days depending on the job.
