Grom is a famous Italian company that makes delicious gelato, which is a special kind of ice cream. It started in Turin, Italy.
Two friends, Federico Grom and Guido Martinetti, opened the very first Grom shop in Italy in 2003. They wanted to make gelato using only the best and most natural ingredients.
Grom's Global Journey
Over time, Grom became very popular. It opened shops in many cities around the world. These included places like Paris, Jakarta, Osaka, and London.
The company grew quickly because people loved their tasty gelato. In 2015, a big company called Unilever bought Grom. Unilever makes many different products, and this helped Grom continue to grow and reach more people.
Since then, some Grom shops have closed in places like the United States and Hong Kong. However, new shops have also opened, for example, in Prague. Grom continues to share its delicious Italian gelato with customers worldwide.
