Little ’Lato plots a path to growth in pandemic

Little ’Lato Founder Hannah Wood speaks with Jonathan Mitchell. Hannah Wood is a self-described gelato fanatic. She turned her love of all things gelato into a commercial business about five years ago, after working for some of the big players in the food industry, including dairy giant Fonterra. It was while on an excursion to Italy, after receiving a scholarship to study at the Carpigiani Gelato University in Bologna, where the seed was sowed to turn her love of gelato into a business. She opened a gelato bar and production kitchen in December 2017, before quickly expanding to other spots around Auckland the following year. Recorded July 27 2022.
