Trio Gelato & Desserts

March 18, 2008

Dear Loyal Customers,

We regret to announce that Trio Gelato & Desserts will be closing its doors May 1st with a final production day of April 18th, 2009. We have had such a wonderful time providing you with quality handmade gelato and sorbetto for the past two years. We will miss it and we will miss you.

Trio was a dream come true for us. We are proud of the product and proud of the successes we have had. However, life moves on and so must we. We have exciting new personal ventures on the horizon. Melanie just had her beautiful little girl, Calina Lily Campbell born March 19th at 6 lbs. 5 ounces. Jess is looking forward to spending even more time with her six month old, Jhonen, and a possible move from Central Florida. Melinda is looking forward to the retirement she thought she’d have two years ago until we convinced her to join us. She can’t wait to garden, sip tea, and read the pile of books she has next to her bed.

With that said, I must ask for any help you may be able to provide regarding the sale of our business or our equipment. If you know anyone who may be interested in a wonderful business opportunity (because it really, really is!) please let us know. We would love to sell the business outright to someone wanting to make great gelato under the Trio name with our consultation. However, if that becomes impossible, we will be willing to sell our equipment and our inventory piecemeal. Please let us know if you or anyone you know may be interested!

Thanks, again. We are sorry to have to make this announcement and we are sorry to make it even more difficult to find great gelato in Central Florida! We have so enjoyed getting to know all of you and can’t thank you enough for all the support and well-wishes you have sent us. We have thought of you as more than customers, but as friends.

All the best to you!

Sincerely,

Melanie, Jess, & Melinda
