Mario Annegarn
From an early age Mario Annegarn had always been in love with Italy (the country, its people and food etc.). So choosing a career related to Italy was a must. But his path to this goal took some twists and turns. After an apprenticeship at Volkswagen he went on to study Business Administration. Following this he worked for a few years at Dresdner Bank. It was during this time that a newspaper article headed with the words “Knowledge of Italian Desirable” caught his eye. From then on his career was turned on its head and his old school friends’ prediction that “…he would make the perfect ice cream seller… ” turned out to be spot on.
