We’re proud to be home to Gelatissimo — a brand that continues to set the benchmark for entrepreneurial growth across Australia. Their strong franchising model empowers passionate owners to build thriving local businesses, including our very own local franchisees, Li and Vanessa, who recently featured on the cover of the Australian Franchise Outlook 2026 magazine as star Franchise Executives.
Starting with a single store, Li and Vanessa have grown their Gelatissimo journey into a four-store success story in just seven years, earning the 2025 Multi-Unit Franchisee – Hospitality Award along the way. Their story is one of dedication and community connection.
Gelatissimo’s 3-year journey at Nicholas Street Precinct has been a great success story alongside other major brands such as HOYTS Group, Zambrero, Nautical Bowls, General Public Australia, TerryWhite Chemmart, Stellarossa Australia and miniBOUNCE, and more recently with Hello Harry The Burger Joint and Vapiano joining our family of businesses, the Precinct has brought life back to the Ipswich CBD.
With the Centre Management Team providing ongoing marketing and operational support to tenants and community sentiment building through media and engagement, we have grown our annual visitations by over 77% to 2.22 million as at end of October 2025, compared to the 12-month period leading to October 2024.
Final remaining tenancies at Nicholas Street Precinct are leasing now! Explore leasing opportunities in our award-winning Precinct and join our growing family of businesses.
