The site of the new store previously housed Kinross’s health centre.

Established as an ice-cream parlour in 1910 by Giuseppe Giacopazzi, the business in Milnathort  is now a ‘Nisa store’ owned and run by the founder’s great-granddaughter Joanna Casonata.

Giacopazzi’s still has a great reputation for ice cream and, with the opening of their new store, Joanna and her husband Franck are aiming to develop an equally good name for pizza.
