GFIC Ice Cream and Frozen Desserts

Who We Serve

Entrepreneurs, Small & Medium Companies

Developing a frozen product can be costly and complex—especially without access to specialized equipment. At GFIC, you can:

• Create and refine frozen dessert formulations without investing in expensive freezing or pasteurization equipment.
• Produce high-quality samples for market testing, investors, retailers, or early product launches.
• Run small pilot batches to evaluate texture, overrun, stability, melt behaviour, and consumer acceptance before scaling up.

We work closely with founders to ensure each formulation is safe, stable, and technically feasible for commercial manufacturing.

Large Food & Beverage Companies

Established manufacturers often lack small-scale, flexible environments to trial new concepts. GFIC provides a dedicated pilot space ideal for:

• Testing new flavours, inclusions, ripples, or formulation changes without interrupting commercial production lines.
• Conducting scale-down trials to troubleshoot issues before making costly adjustments at full scale.
• Validating process conditions, overrun targets, mix behaviour, and ingredient performance under pilot-scale conditions.
• Accessing technical support from experts who understand industrial ice cream manufacturing.

This allows companies to innovate more efficiently, without reallocating plant resources or reconfiguring equipment for small test runs.

Additional Services

We offer flexible, efficient, and cost-effective processing at low minimum order quantities, customized to your scale and goals. Additional services available in our OMAFA-certified dairy pilot plant include:

• Use of continuous freezer, hardening room, and Videojet date coder
• Microbial testing of finished product
