Queensland’s Rosalie Cold Rock franchise will re-open its doors this Saturday, nearly three months after the state’s devastating floods destroyed the ice cream outlet.
The store in the city’s inner-west will reopen in time for Rosalie Rising, a community street party to celebrate the recovery of businesses within the Rosalie Village precinct.
Franchisees Donna and John Weatherhead had to rebuild their 13 year old business from scratch once the floods had passed. “The water ruined our fridges, freezers, cold room and display cabinets and the walls had to be ripped out and the ceiling replaced,” said Donna.
“In the beginning we felt like flood victims but it’s time to move on. This Saturday will be a great way to tell Brisbane that we’re well and truly ready to welcome customers back.”
