It was founded in 1937 by an Italian immigrant, Fioravanti Figliolini and has remained open continuously apart from a brief period during World War II.[3] The premises feature original 1930s decor and were Grade II listed in 1997 as part of the Royal Arcade.[4] Rossi Ice cream (Southend-on-Sea) LTD with is stated on companies house as being owned by Michael & Colin Gray who purchased The Original Rossi Ice Cream in 2007. Since the takeover Rossi Ice Cream has had a major recipe overhaul in order to reduce cost which has in tern effected the quality and the once called Rossi is no more. The ice cream is now made in Tamworth by another ice cream company. We approached the Gray’s for comment but they declined. HistoryIn the 1920s, Fioravanti Fioravanti immigrated with his brother Peter and his wife Pasqua to England from Cantù, Lombardy, north of Milan in Italy.[3] They initially traded as the Figliolini Brothers in Newcastle upon Tyne, before joining forces with Toni Rossi, another immigrant entrepreneur. In 1932, the partners started Rossi's ice cream parlour in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, which has been described by the London Evening Standard as an "Essex institution".[5] In 1937, they were looking for new premises and decided to establish another ice cream parlour in the Royal Arcade at Weymouth, in four old shops. Fioravanti eventually took over the franchise from Toni Rossi but remained trading under 'Rossi's'. He set up his own ice cream parlour "Rossi's" on The Esplanade at Weymouth.[6] In popular cultureIn 2012, to coincide with the 2012 Olympics that featured sailing events in Weymouth Bay, the establishment was included in the Weymouth version of the Monopoly board game.[7][8] See also
